I am so fed up with people being put through just because they are marketable, and have a story to tell. That really isn't enough. This is a big high profile show. Is it so hard to find twelve contrasting people who can sing a bit and actually deliver the goods? There was only one performance tonight that was very hard to fault and several who just didn't deserve to be there. It's not good enough.
Can you tell that I couldn't care less about the rugby and I'm cheesed off that my turn in front of the telly was a sad disappointment?

Talent this year is pretty poor. Last year was carried on the basis of Leona being exceptionally good. XF2 was the best talent we've ever had. I think we're down to the lowly levels of XF1 in terms of talent.
It is poor. I know they were all nervous and I'm prepared to cut them some slack because of that but all the same..........
Tonight showed quite a few that are good, but there were too many bland or bad ones. As of week 3, things need to pick up. In terms of themes, tonight was a gift so it can only get harder.
I suppose in a way it is quite nice to see some of them find their feet and start to do better as the weeks go by. Emily might do that, as she is very young.
I think Emily may be gone tonight. I know it won't be a popular opinion, but I think Hope have the most chance of showing improvement. Rhydian, who was my favourite tonight, will continue to be good, but I can't see him raising it much further.
That would be a shame. She was poor but you could see what she might be capable of. Rhydian and Beverley have possibly shown themselves (like 'em or not) at their best and that might leave them vulnerable later if one or two of the others up their game. They have obviously decided to market Rhydian so that will help him.
They are so blatant about it now as well.
Not too much to ask is it. They seem to think that the story needs to come first. It doesn't. If a contestant has talent that makes them interesting and we will want to find out more. If they haven't then it's nice that their mum loves them etc but I don't really care that much.
