Fifth Judge?

Just saw this posted on twitter http://t.co/ZZGw2bxAXj by the official X Factor account - could there be another panel member, or are they talking about the general public being the fifth judge yet again?

    Maybe they are bringing in a fifth judge alternately for the live shows. However I expect it to be the live audience they are talking about

    I'd presume the audience or I guess they could be talking about Sharon's dog?

    I bet it will be the audience or public, sigh. I thought it was going to be exciting and then they said something like "find out who or what it is..."....

    Have they done this before and it's turned out to be the audience , seems really pointless if so

    X Factor around the world had 5 judges so Id say Simon and co are def planning on expanding the panel.

    I actually like this idea! Dont like the quiet room audition adding felt that was a step back but this sounds fun.

    I hope it's not literally a fifth person on the panel because the feedback will go on too long... :yawn:

    But I hope IF anyone is going to be the fifth judge it's Simon - but only if it's for the final vote/deadlock bit in the results show.

    Obviously going to be Simon. I'll be pissed if they say it's the audience or something

    Maybe their will be a Top 16 and the FIFTH JUDGE will pick 3 wild cards from contestants that will be sent home

    I'm pretty sure they mean the viewers.

    I Thought that as well however I think it must be something more since DS has an article about it

    its obviously something new to the show because they are making an official announcement on friday, so they wouldnt just make space for a special announcement if it just emphasised an existing part of the show surely? I was thinking perhaps it might be some sort of a scoring system, so that the scoreboard would be the fifth judge. Don't really know how it would work in unison with the categories format though...

    It's the New interactive app. Viewers can vote yes or no for the acts shown over the auditions and the results will appear on screen.

    Hope not. I don't want any silly twists this year. There are bound to be only 12 contestants as they put 24 through to the judges houses.

    They will need to find a new Wagner/Jedward/Rylan/Christopher Maloney to keep it interesting.

    Jedward were probably the only ones out of those who actually kept the ratings up, but I think if they focus too much on those acts, they'll overshadow the acts with talent.

    Sounds about right since its the day before it starts. But Im convinced that sooner or later a fifth judge will be added.

    I think it will be simon via satellite , they can't hype it up by announcing a specific date then revealing its the audience that would be a ridiculous and not particularly clever thing to do

    I think the 'or what' addition to the tweet more than suggests that it isn't a specific person so the new app sounds very likely.

    Surely it has to be someone who will make a massive impact on the show, hence the announcement? I'm assuming it'll be someone who will only join the panel for the live shows because they're announcing it so late.
    Maybe Cheryl seeing as she's recently said she won't be joining The Voice as she has too much association with X Factor?

    It'll be difficult though for someone to come in to the show so late in the process when they haven't been involved in the audition process in any way.

    Maybe it'll be Simon then?
