Why are Attraction on the last Semi Final?
They seem to be one of the most popular acts this year and they have been left to the last show, is there a draw between the acts before semis to decide what day they'll appear on the show? Or is Simon filling each semi with two good acts and some rubbish ones so his chosen few make it to the final?

The whole show to me just reeks of manipulation in order for Simon to get what he wants, i do enjoy the show mainly the entertainment acts and not the singers and dancers :sleep:

The 2 real favourites left seem to be them and Aliki. They'll probably be on separate semi finals.

I didn't realize that the final was a week Saturday, I was thinking the last semi finals were on Friday. That means Attraction, Francine Lewis and Aliki have a great chance of getting through.

Francine Lewis is a favourite aswell. Wonder if she'll be on against Attraction?

^ Perhaps Emeli Sandé will be on standby to wow us with a rare live performance of "Read All About It", should Attraction make the final and repeat their audition piece.

Of course it is.They decide who appears in each semi final and what order they appear in so as Simon can get the ones he wants in the final.
I admit I usually think it's manipulated that the favourite goes on last in each semi and whoever is on first has absolutely no prospect of going through no matter how good they are. I was very surprised the other night that Alice didn't go on last, as she was clearly Cowell's favourite. |

According to wiki - which, to be fair, has been accurate when it comes to semi final listings before they're officially announced - Francine will be in Friday's semi final while Attraction will perform on Saturday.

Although this system means that there are still acts that go out that are good, at least usually you do get 10 good acts in the final, whether they are nearly all singers or not.

In all shows it's manipulated that their 'star' get the pimp spot at the end and even down to which acts go in which shows so as to knock out those they don't want and give the ones they do want the best chance. Even the videos and recaps are carefully manipulated to promote some and not others. And if all else fails, well then the judges still have a vote to get what they want at the end. |

Probably saving the best till last. Well let's face it other than liking Alice and Aaron and Attraction for me the rest of its been a pile of doggy doo.

Just thinking wasn't the ones who won last year on the last final as well? I can't quite remember though. The ones who win are usually in the later semis.
