Well done to Ben, but for me the real winners were Andrea and Paul as they had the better voices!

But Simon got what he wanted, his two in the final! Typical!

Well good for him I guess but bleh what a boring winner and winners single. I wasn't too bothered about Fleur either, boring final all round.

Ben definitely deserved to win, but Fleur seems to have better prospects of a career now than he does!

He out sang Fleur, but Cowell will sign her as well so they both get what they came for.

Yay, he certainly deserved it on the night. I feel satisfied with the outcome of what has been a very underwhelming series.

Congrats to them both..A band will won next year if you see a pattern ..Girl wins, male wins band wins, and so on

I favoured Fleur overall but I'm still happy that Ben won.

Certainly my favourite contestants this year and probably two of my favourites ever.

Another Brookstein...will just disappear...Fleur might do slightly better...no rock singers in the charts these days so Ben will struggle

Whoo! Local boy!

NO i am not surprised as much as i wanted Fleur to win that winner's song sealed Ben's victory in the end. That song didn't suit Fleur and it exposed her as a weaker vocalist too.

Congratulations to Ben for winning.
I wanted Fleur to win, but I wish Ben all the luck in the World. Seems like a really decent guy.
