Say what you will about Simon Cowell, but if he had been on the panel from the off we would not have had to endure so many rubbish acts in the final, David Micheal and "Mandy" clearly thought that they were being funny and adding fun to the compitition by putting through people with dogs that do nothing, a guy who bulges his eyes etc and throw out fantastic acts like the french dancer.
I like the judges individualy, but as a panel they have no idea what talent is and if the show is to survive for a few more seasons they need to go.
p.s. I am a big Michael Mc fan, but I wish he would stop saying things like "I am glad you made simon happy" or " I am glad we brought you back, simon loved you"...jeezzze.
