There are a lot of young girls this time. I'm always wary about putting girls so young in such a big role. Even if Jessie, Sam and Niamh had been better than Jodie, Sarah or Rachel in my opinion I would have still have worried how they would cope with the pressure of being the winner and all that goes with it. Jessie and Niamh in particular, they were young 18 year olds, Sam was less so but I really hate to think about what the tabloids would've done to her.”
