Does it depend on how good the new judge is? Or how the ratings are? Or the chemistry between the new judge and the other three?
Even though I'm happy for Dannii going back to the Aus show, because she enjoyed it so much, closer to her son etc, I do think it will be weird seeing the UK panel and someone else in her seat. Especially as that was THE PANEL. When you think of X Factor and you think of its peak you think Simon, Cheryl, Dannii and Louis.

I understand why shes in Oz but I will miss her on the UK show.
Same!
She absolutely killed it on her last two years. I've never seen someone on the show have such a transformation and change of public opinion. In 2010 she was the absolute golden girl and couldn't do anything wrong. So different from 2008.
I really do think it's going to be odd this year, depending on how the new judge goes down...
Im more worried that with Simon and Cheryl coming back it will just highlight that the talent is secondary compared to who is sat behind the desk.
I think a lot of a shows success is down the talent but, having a reunion with one person missing is weird. Ppl will automatically be asking 'wheres Dannii?' No matter how Simon tries to come around that.
So, from the headlines I've just seen in the DM (don't know if they're true or not) - he apparently blames Gary for the ratings dip, he really wants Louis back, he quite likes Mel B but hasn't decided on anything yet, he's wont hire Nicole because she'd clash with Cheryl and Cheryl's the best judge ever (zzzz...
When Dannii joined, it became Dannii vs Sharon, with Simon stirring up sh1t between the women in the press. Then it was Dannii vs Cheryl with the media printing stories of Dannii slagging off Girl's Aloud and Cheryl slagging off Dannii. I don't know if the two of them came to some sort of true in private to not slag each other off in the press but there was a distance between them on the show. They were both nothing but complementary to each other but a telling sign was Dannii caming out holding Louis Walsh's hand. Considering that Louis had slagged Dannii off before, there must've been some behind the scenes politics we weren't aware of for Dannii to make Louis her ally.

I really hope Simon doesn't pick another female judge just to start all this drama in the press again. It would be enjoyable to watch if there were four judges who could say what they think without having to worry about how it is going to affect them not only in the press but in the behind the scenes politics. The only way this can be achieved is if Simon picks someone who is on an equal footing with Cheryl.
It will be interesting to see who the fourth judge is and despite Simon's declarations that Cheryl will have a say in it, I don't believe this and I hope Cheryl is not that naive either. This is the guy who promised to make her a big name in the states and dropped her at a moments notice. I think he will pick someone who plays off Cheryl very well but ultimately, I don't think Cheryl will have a say (though he might make her believe she has).
An honour shared with Wagner. . .:D
Rofl!!! For totally different reasons though as Dannii's won the X Factor 3 times now.
Really? How can you speak for the whole nation? Her last year was their biggest ever and she won that.
Exactly. I do not know how people can come out with things like 'She won't be missed by the majority' How can one person speak for the whole country, with not stats, or figures from EVERY single person in this country/?:D
