Noticed after John performed the Judges kept looking down at something on the table, sheet of paper or a script I bet knowing what was going to be said!

Maybe they make notes during the contestant's performance and refer to them when giving their feedback! Just a thought!

yeah I think they do actually because I've seen Simon on occasion chewing a pen or something in previous series on the X factor I think they have screens on the desk as well so that they can see what the camera is seeing

I've seen Dannii making notes from time to time when a performance is going on. Or at least I'd presume so as she had a pen in her hand.
The others don't seem to bother (that I've noticed anyway), which would lead me to the conclusion that Dannii seems to be the only Judge that seems to want to give constructive criticism instead of posing for the cameras.

They aren't making notes. They are drawing each other naked.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the camera accidentally panned around and caught them doing that? Priceless!!!

Actually, I think Cheryl was drawing naked pictures of Wagner.

Why do they need to make notes, they say the same thing over and over. Probably shuffling through their flash cards of x factor cliches.

Can biffa write??

Maybe they are watching Strictly, or Top Gear re-runs on Dave instead? I mean, it would be possible. As someone said they just reshuffle the cliche's flashcards, have heard it all before so might as well relieve the boredom by watching something good on the goggle-box. Mind you, how they can concentrate on what they are watching with all that dreadful racket going on beats me!

To read their notes. You know the performances are in 3 Acts.

They have the attention span of a gnat.

I don't think Danni looks down, but as for Cheryl, she is reading what Simon has told her to say.

I hope he's communicating with very short sentences with simple words and big capital letters, otherwise thicko won't get it.

Dannii and Cheryl play noughts and crosses sometimes during ad breaks.

Do they not have little TV screens or something? That's what I always thought

Must be costing Simon a fortune in batteries for his pet puppet

yeah I thought there were monitors on the desk that showed what we were seeing at home .. and I presumed they used them to see how the acts are coming over on TV .. they seem to have that on American Idol . so I don't know
