Come dancing has beaten the X factor with almost 1,000,000 more viewers. This is a turnaround from last week when X factor won the ratings war.

The report in today's Daily Mirror blames the rivalry between the judges.Mirror report

I must admit the more I think about the show, the more frustrating it is. I think Simon Cowell has made a huge blunder giving the judges the final say.

I agree.

i must admit that I turned over to come dancing on Sat, rather than watch x-factor (well, I knew I'd catch it Sun on ITV2) and that's a first for me.

Must be getting camper with age

Louis has just said on This Morning that Come Dancing DID NOT beat X factor. Does anyone know any links to an unbiased ratings source?

It will be if more viewers keep deserting the X factor because of the judges in fighting. Louis Walsh telling porkies isn't going to help either.

Mediaweek's ratings roundup has very similar figures to DS.

According to MediaGuardian things were a little different.
They say that Come Dancing lost out to X-Factor between 6.45p.m and 7.15 p.m when X-Factor was watched by 7million though the 6.2 million was before this half hour. Seems ITV should follow the Beebs lead and move it to a later time.

Strictly come dancing is much better, and it doesn't suprise me one bit it won! X factor is a fake, crap mixed up version of all the other TV music reality shows, e.g Judges vote = Fame Academy? Pop Idol? Popstars? Popstars the rivals? (judges the rivals) etc etc!

Oh and lets be honest, it's called X factor but who actually has the X factor on this show? I can only think of Rowetta..

Oh and of course Shaz Osborne being a b---h, saying she doesn't like Davina at the NTA's, someone shut her up please!

When she presented the award for Most Popular Entertainment Presenter, Davina's name was called, Shaz thought the camera was off her and said something like "Oh that Davina i'm sick of her, I hate her" but the sound was still on. Poor Davina she heard it aswell...

Got to agree with you. The show is less about the acts and more about the judges rivalry!
