    Okay, a very easy theme to start with...and it's gonna be...

    ANYTHING GOES!

    Yep, just find ANY song that will get your acts settled into the competition, this will be the easiest theme of the lot for this Series so there should be no excuses here. ;)

    Because what could be more simpler? A bread sandwich I tell you. :p

    Because of tonight, I have decided that the date for show 1 will be on Wednesday 6th November at 6:00pm, so you all have 5 days to get your songs in by hopefully Wednesday 12pm or earlier if possible.

    Oh and don't expect it to be plain sailing because I have a twist for you now...

    *TWIST*

    The mystery judge is back, BUT with a new person who has taken the step to be either nice or as nasty as the mystery judge likes to be!

    As of right now, there are no other twists planned but I do have another one or two ready as the Series progresses.

    Ahhh Pingu's mentoring Zoe! I would LOVE to mentor her. And then Jack's mentoring Lucie! Awww. :( Pingu and Jack have got great categories.

    And yes please to themes.

    Hahaha I have :D I am taking Zoe down the quirky jazz route where she belongs.

    And don't you get down. You have an amazing category. Looking forward to seeing how you mentor Matt as he doesn't usually do well.

    Actually could we change it from the 6th? I've got an exam to take. And I really want to focus on that? Can we change it to 8th or after please? :o

    You SO stole that mystery judge twist from The Solo Factor Steve! :mad:

    Or did I technically steal it as you've used it before? :p

    Anyway, looking forward to seeing how Zoe, Matt, Diva Fever and Lucie are mentored this series.

    Impossible, you're supposed to be hosting The Chance Factor that Sunday, which Pingu and Jacka are expected to attend as well. :rolleyes:

    EDIT: 8th November is a Friday by the way, not a Sunday...

    OK... Again sorry for missing the show!

    My Picks for This Series' Winning Team (;)) is...

    Boys
    Austin Drage
    A Fantastic voice and someone who can adapt to the various themes that this competition will throw up. I was tempted to go for Mali-Michael or even Liam Payne, however in the end decided Austin would be a good pick to represent the Series 5 boys!

    Girls
    Hannah Bradbeer
    An act with a fantastic voice; really I could've chosen any of the girls from this series as they were all so strong. However Hannah is different, quicky and has a fantastic voice.

    Overs
    Suzie Furlonger
    Another brilliant singer who had her time on the XF cut short due to the amount of sob stories for other contestants. This series though Suzie is bringing it for the Overs and will be a force to be reckoned with when it gets to the various themes.

    Groups
    Girlband
    To be honest not a huge amount of chose from once JLS have been taken out of the equation, however I have always thought Girlband had a bit of a bad luck on the show and they never reached their full potential.... now they can as they're representing the Groups of Series 5!

    Looking at those acts - we're going to have a pretty incredible series.

    Soppy - can I know something quickly - is the first elimination going to be a quadruple like last year?

    And goodness for the first time have I seen two jazz acts - Hannah and Zoe! This is going to be exciting! I wonder who's going to win the jazz battle. :D

    No, I've decided not to throw that twist in again, even though it made it all very exciting.
    But I have replaced it with two other twists that'll be coming up later in this Series.

    So is red on Back To Basics, but that doesn't mean it should happen all over again.
    I have a feeling the curse is gonna end this time around. ;)

    Btw all, Pingu has inboxed me his winners prediction which has given me an idea for this game. If you like, you other three can also send in your winners prediction and we'll see who gets it right. :cool:

    Don't forget to send in your sing-off songs as well.

    Just a reminder that two more sets of songs are due to be in soon.

    But they have bags of time to do so before Friday. :)
