It's all planned for Calum to win
Put him against a fairly solid final but emphasis his own talent by putting him on last.
It's a twofold thing to eliminate competition for Calum in the final

I agree if you look at how poor Monday was, entity all stars for example would have had no chance of getting a through tonight yet they are in the final whereas arguably better acts will miss out. I don't understand why they put so many poor acts on Mondays show.
Entity All Stars stick out like a sore thumb. They only got through as Monday's show was much weaker than the rest and it's a shame because better acts have missed out because of much stronger competition.

Totally agree with this. Monday's show was the weakest by a mile and I can only think that is because they wanted to guarantee the choir got through.
I would not say tonight's has been that strong to be honest, tuesday/Wednesday were the strongest nights for talent and ain't it a coincidence the 2 best nights for talent and not one singing act got through to the 4 places on offer, yet last night's was awful and 2 singers got through, and possibly 2 tonight as well
Just goes to show that different people have different tastes.
I felt last night was excellent and better than some finals; tonight was dire in comparison.

Calum winning tonight's semi is so obvious it's ridiculous. He was crap imo, really pitchy.
I'm hoping Jesse gets through. She's a little star and she provides "variety".

So that a poor one gets to the final and is not a threat to Simons chosen one, then put all good ones in one show so that most of them get voted off, not to be a threat to the chosen one. That's how it gets rigged.

It seems ridiculous to me that an act like entity all stars can be in the final when tonight alone there were three acts in Jonathan,Emma and the beat brothers who were all far better and yet didn't even make the top 3.
