Sad Luke didn't get through. I wanted Nicholas to go, and Luke in tomorrow's show, but as everyone else has said he's going to have a huge career and is better off away from Syco.

I was watching some of his early videos on Youtube today and his talent is so evident even when he was younger, and also his own songs on his EP are so good.

I'm really looking forward to when he has an album out now, and he becomes known as a proper artist rather than an X Factor contestant. I want to switch on the radio and hear his songs!

Absolutely gutted.

I really don't understand... :/
Sadly I think I can. The voters always tend to go for the safe option which is why the runners up tend to do better long term. Luke's style is more likely to appeal to people who would buy records but don't tend to vote. Which isn't a bad thing long term.

Been reading some tweets from people who were at the live show tonight. Apparently before the final 2 were announced, the audience were warned not to boo.

Interesting.

Yeh they knew he would finish 3rd at that point so probably felt the need to warm them not to boo.

Also people on twitter saying to buy Lukes EP to show their support. Those who haven't bought his EP - go do it now

I'm more interested in the voting percentage reveal tomorrow night than the final. I just want to see how close it was.

Extremely shocked by tonight's result. One thing's for sure...I'll be getting lots of sleep tomorrow night.

Luke's duet was epic...shame they showed the worst part of it in the recap and he performed his duet first!! What on earth are the producers doing?

Luke is a star. Now that he's eliminated, how do I sing up for his mailing list again?

Sad that he went out against Nicholas... but we are now left with the two acts who have no actual x factor, good voices, no style and have little chance of a career post the show.

Luke has been fantastic throughout the series and really his main buying demographic wouldn't really watch or vote on a reality tv show, so I guess to come third shows how popular he has become elsewhere.... especially seeing as he was rank outsider to win at one point.

Can't wait to see what comes next - he will 100% be bigger than the 2 remaining anyway
