I was wondering if Cheryl was just so dumbfounded by how childish that question was, or if she genuinely didn't know and had to be told it into her ear by a producer.

It was so random, it had nothing to do with the point he was trying to make.

She must have known, surely? She did go to TreyC's house. Unless she's in the habit of going halfway across the country without asking where her destination is.

He was trying to prove that she didn't know Treyc. Alas, it didn't work.

It goes back to series 2 when Louis asked Simon what the names of 4tune were (he was mentoring them) and he didn't have the foggiest idea!

Surely she didn't drive there herself. These people have chauffeurs, you know!

Oh, I'm not suggesting that she drove herself, only that she must have had some idea where she was going.

This sounds stupid but do the judges actually wear ear pieces?

Well, he was making a point that Cheryl is not connecting with TreyC, by which I think he meant that she is not putting the same time into TreyC as she is into the Cher and Katie and is probably not half arsed about getting to know her like she knows the others.

Knowing where someone lives is one of the most basic things you would expect a mentor to know about one of their group. I think he caught her out a bit there. She had to think about it.

Something tells me that Simon wouldn't be able to list the hometowns of the One Direction/Belle Amie members, never mind FYD.

Well, to be honest, I just always assumed they did. I don't have any proof or anything. Just thought, well, they must.

He was trying to make the point that Cheryl spends more time and knows more about Cher and Katie and perhaps even Rebecca than Trey C. But to be honest, that was a naff way of showing Chezza up because even I forget where people are from and I'm no where near as busy as Mz Cole. We all know that Cheryl favours Cher n Katie, Simon hardly needed to labour the point and quite frankly cant talk, as he is just as guilty!

As for the point that he was trying to make, I think its more that Trey C doesn't know who she is as an artist and is completely open and compliant to every suggestion Cheryl makes. If she was grounded and knew what was her niche, she would be in a position to agree or disagree with the song choice. As it stands, I think shes so appreciative to be there, she'll do whatever is asked of her. Which isnt much cos Cheryls too busy playing with her bratz. :P

I was waiting for one of the judges to put Simon on the spot and ask him where each member of One Direction lives.

How much did that irritate me? Dermot last week, Cheryl this week. Treyc does not come from Birmingham!! Why does everyone think that people with a West Mids accent come from Birmingham?! Its a big county.On the plus side, at least it showed up his little poppet, you could almost see the cogs in her brain turning as she tried to remember which she obviously couldn'!!

I didn't think she got it right. Isn't Treyc from Tamworth in Staffordshire?

I thought her answer of "I've been to her house!" was equally as bizare as the question

It did work - she doesn't live in Birmingham ! You could see she was struggling to remember, got as far as remembering it was in the midlands and plumped for Birmingham.

She is from Tamworth - and one of my friends who lives in Tamworth hasn't shut up about it on Facebook! I went to Uni in Brum, and for some reason people in the north hate when they are called Brummies. She should have just answered West Midlands. She'd have got away with that!

But it didn't really work... because Simon asked a question to which he didn't know the answer himself! Most people won't have had a clue whether or not Cheryl was right or wrong.

The only way Cheryl could really have gone wrong was to say nothing (which she very nearly did) or if someone actually knew the real answer in order to correct her.

Obviously it did work for us on DS!

But couldn't any of the judges be forgiven for not knowing where each other's acts are from? Cheryl is supposedly spending time with "me girls" and should make it her business to know where they live.
