Johnny.

He didnt poll the least amount of votes last week. The Risk should not even be entertained if this is what is going to happen!!

Agreed. Plus I doubt anyone would be annoyed with him coming back, he was so gracious in his defeat. Admittedly they could bring back one of the eliminated acts (Amelia, Jonjo, James or 2 Shoes) but that would be completely unfair as they would have skipped all the performances to get to the final 7. (Plus I can't see them doing that, as it would undermine the Judges' decision if they won).

It would be even more unfair to bring someone back that has faced the publc vote and been eliminated.
Johnny may have got more votes than The Risk, but he didn't get enough votes to get him out of the bottom 2 or 3.
If he was more liked / popular with the audience he would have got more votes and stayed in;

Johnny, yes... definitely he would be the one to bring back. Like I said, if they want the show to be some way credible they shouldn't do it, but if they do bring back anyone it should be Johnny.

I wonder if there's any chance they'd bring Jedward back as a wildcard into the show. They would have no chance of winning, unlike Johnny, so it wouldn't really be unfair on the other contestants.

Johnny would be perfect for Queen/Gaga week although he'd not have much time to rehearse.

Yes but it was a double elimination. And no it wouldn't be more unfair to bring Johnny back. He survived 5 weeks of the live show on his own account. One of those 4 can't just skip all those live shows, which all the other remaining contestants had to work for.

Johnny would be the only person they could ask back without it loking like a fix.

It should be James,he wasnt voted out,and its 1 of garry's acts that have gone,so it should be 1 of garry's acts brought back.

If they HAVE to bring someone back, then obviously the last act to be eliminated should be back - in this case, Johnny.

However, I think it'd be a really bad idea to bring anyone back (during the audition process, fine, but not when the viewers money becomes involved!)

plus bringing back Johnny would mean each category has 2 acts in it so - if they FEEL they have to add another twist, a whole 20 minutes having passed without something weird going on - then it would be fairer to swap categories. Would not have been fair before to have, say, Gary going from (then) 3 acts and swapping with Louis and picking up just one.

I would like to see James back though I understand why a case can be made for Johnny as well. Since no one invested money in voting for James and as you say he was never voted out, I think his return could be justified.

No way. He would in essence be given a 5 week pass into the finals. His case is no stronger than Max Vickers, John Wilding or any of the other JH rejects.

Johnny is the fairest choice. Last out, first in.

I doubt anyone from the live shows will be brought back, it'd piss off voters too much. Cos it's like why vote to save when people who you don't like are just gonna come back anyway, I know your still saving someone but your keeping them out of the bottom 2. I dunno, maybe they will, but I think it will be someone who didn't make it through to lives.

I didn't say James had a stronger case than the acts you mentioned, just that a case could be made for him. I like Johnny and would be happy to see him back. However I think James would have a better shot at winning the competition.

James wasn't a JH reject, he got into Garys final 4

Rubbish. Johnny is OUT, if the public wanted him to be still in the competition then more would have voted for him, But not enough liked him so he ended up in the bottom 2 or 3 and then got eliminated.

I don't think it would be fair to bring any of them back to be honest. All those that have gone have gone through the appropriate process and have been eliminated accordingly. Maybe they just need to have 2 acts in the final from start to finish and leave it at that!!

James didn't even qualify for the finals, so if it's rubbish to reinstate someone who already EARNED his place in the finals, I don't know what you'd call petitioning for an audition reject to automatically make the Top 7.

James is no more worthy of a place in the live finals than any of the other boys who auditioned for the show and weren't put through to the live finals.

Theoretically, a case could made for anyone. It's a different matter if it's a strong case.

In James (or Amelia, 2 Shoes or Jonjo)' case, it would mean giving someone who didn't make the live shows a free pass to the Top 7...ahead of acts that qualified for the finals on their own accord. Logically, that makes zero sense.

And James winning is a matter of taste. I thought Frankie performed better than James in the Top 16 performance...and Frankie has zero talent. That says a lot about James' star quality.

James did make it through to the LIVE FINALS, he was there in week 1, but didnt make it through to the following week were the public vote came into account.

Live Finals is when the public votes start. He made it to the limbo space between the JH and the Live Finals.

Either give one of the four eliminated in the first week a chance to return to the show. Public vote 1 back in = Amelia returning.

Or Gary picks someone from boys judges house = Lascal Woods to enter the competition.

Unfortunately 'The Risk can't come back' neither can Johnny as makes a mockery of whole show as others can say they were not bottom 2 week they got eliminated and will open a whole can of worms.
