I know there have been a few really obvious winners in some shows over the years.

I dont think have been many where whoever the opposition were before it started, you knew she was a certain winner.

    Pete in big brother 7 comes to mind, red hot favourite from start to finish, no one else stood a chance.

    I agree with you OP, my guess is she's getting 85% of the vote. :)

    Let's hope so, she deserves it. Made the series for me.

    Stacey deserves it, like most of the eliminated celebs have said, she is one of a kind. ;)

    I'd be SHOCKED if Stacey doesn't win. You could see it from day one. Down to earth, not whinging, getting on with anything that comes her way, laughing in the face of adversity, supportive, honest, modest, doing her fare share, everything you could want in a contestant.

    Agreed, she's a great girl and I really hope she does well off the back of this show, which I think she will for sure.

    Let's hope all the attention and (hopefully) money doesn't change her, I'm pretty sure it wont though, she's well grounded.

    One word... Gino.

    I didn't think he would be as popular as he was, but when they released the % each day, he was on huge % to save all the time, and managed 83.42% in the final to win, the most landslide reality victory.

    IMO it will be quite close between Stacey and Shaun.

    It's just very odd she didnt win last year but at least if, she does it reignites her pop career.

    Every celeb who's come out of the jungle has said Stacey to win, but watching the programme, it feels like Shaun is doing just as well.

    I never vote on reality TV shows so I feel like a passive outsider on these things.

    Stacey has surprised me, she is a lot sharper than she appears at first breathy airheaded comment.

    The celebs may say that in front of the camera but Dom said they all knew Stacey was going to win so there was no competitiveness. Agro has also said that he did a lot more in the jungle and yet 'others' were given more air time and he is very disappointed at what was not shown. Call this sour grapes, I don't, I call it honesty.

    Joe Swash "interviewed" her mum on the ITV show last night and from that she seemed to be a down to earth and cheery lady. I can see where Stacey gets her lovely personality from. Interestingly the ITV coverage seems to be assuming a Stacey win. Joe Swash said something to Stacey's mum along the lines of "she could be crowned Queen of the Jungle", whereas the other relatives only got a "I expect you are looking forward to seeing them again".

    I guess it depends on what others look for in a winner. I like Shaun and Stacey equally but for different reasons. I have found Shaun funny, straight-talking and surprisingly thoughtful and kind - the very same things I have found in Stacey. However, Stacey is more of a team player and has tackled everything with enthusiasm and without complaint. Also, I have not heard her say one bad thing about any other contestant - not even the witch McGrief. So, on balance, I really want Stacey to win.

    Stacey will win - she's kooky, warm, friendly and she was on the X Factor too! None of the other celebs have a chance against her.

    But he did nothing and was playing to the camera from the moment he "fell" down the stairs going in.

    Stacey's done OK on the ghastly trials (spiders may still be an understandable problem) and shone on the ones that posed physical or mental challenges. She's led Aggro through one, beaten Linford in a physical test by applying more brain power and worked the musical goat task out while Shaun, the other singer, was still trying to figure out what it was about. She's also the best stone thrower ever seen on IAC.

    It's just very odd she didnt win last year but at least if, she does it reignites her pop career.

    Simon had Leona and Alex as his only successful winners already and by series 6 wanted a boy. That wasn't difficult as the boys, in either single form or as boy groups, dominate the voting on X factor for every recent year we have the figures - even Alexandra Burke wins in a series where JLS and Eoghan suck up a lot of that vote before the final 2. In Stacey's series, the male singers between them had 50% + of the vote and their percentage was redistributed between them as people left. Even, with that bias though, Stacey beat the winner Joe for 3 weeks out of 10 and beat the runner up Olly for 6.

    There have been a few easy wins this year, Josie won BB with 75% or so plus Gino last year. Stacey will easily get 80% tbh

    Sorry, I have to disagree, Josie from Big Brother 2010 was an obvious winner from only a few weeks in.

    I agree, but I only meant she got a huge %, but easiest win would mean totally the obvious winner from day 1. I guess in hindsight, Josie wasn't the best example

    I think it just goes to prove that STACEY would have been a more successful winner of her series IMO. She has a great voice and totally likeable, what better recipe for success.

    This was only the case because of the helping hand in obliterating Josies oppostion before the end.

    Stacey would have still won whoever they had put in

    Gino last year was a fairly obvious winner, right from day 1. I think the only thing that could stop Stacey is the way people like to back the underdog, so her status as favourite could get in the way a bit. Hope it doesn't though, she's amazing.

    Not sure what they could have tried to turn her into though. Rebecca and Cher seemed to have been boxed into a character this year and Leona and Alex were both turned into an artificial character and sound to get sales.Stacey can sing almost anything very well but she's not as easy to put in a box. She's not obviously in the pop or concert (Ruthie Henshall like ) market, she can't be SuBo and she's not as obvious a transfer to the West End as Brenda, Ray, Cassie or Lucie. She needs someone wih a bit of imagination to help pick the right songs and someone inspired to spot a niche or role for her.
