I'm sorry but using a personal tragedy to help you progress is pretty low in my eyes. If he's prepared to use that as a 'selling point' then who knows what he's capable of. He seems like the type of guy that would throw you under the bus at the first opportunity. His performances have been more cringe-worthy than heartwarming . If anything I should be rooting for him as he's from my home town of Bolton but there's nothing likeable about him whatsoever..

Well there is no way that I would buy someone as vile as Arthurs music.

My issue with Christian is that he is practically a clone of Ed Sheeran.

The way he sings = Ed Sheeran
The way he pronounces his words = Ed Sheeran
The way he plays his guitar = Ed Sheeran

There is nothing unique or interesting about Christian to keep me interested. What would he add to the music industry that Ed Sheeran hasn't? He's the Scooch to the more successful Steps (yeah, I'll go with that analogy!!! ).

He has a bland personality

He is absolutely pathetic, talking like bar work is 'beneath' him. What have these people got against the working class exactly.. His voice aint even that good, he shouts the lyrics to manipulate eveyone how desperate he is..

When he took a seat he didn't even show sympathy for the poor guy. Him & Matt Terry are not only awful singers but they're awful people. These desperate ******* are gonna make this series unbearable ...

I'm really sorry that his brother died, but I really hated his audition song (it was cringey, especially the bit about chubby cheeks) and the tone of his voice when he sang. Sounded really forced and unnatural. I did feel sorry for him at JH a bit though...

Yeah, he was a harmelss enough guy, wasnt terrible but i just felt he was bland and his voice was too basic.

I didnt like the 'little thunder buddy' bit. Way to rip of Seth Macfarlane.

Like Matt Terry constantly bringing up his ex we don't care

Couldn't agree more. I find the acts who constantly rely on sob stories (whether it is a dead brother, ex-girlfriend or can't read) are actually the weakest and when it comes to the lives they never quite make it to the finish line.

A true star doesn't need to rely on making people feel sorry for them - they can get audience from their voice, charisma and material.

Can we put a sticky at the top saying it's the producers who:

1. Decide who goes to the lives
2. Decide who survives the sing-offs
3. Press the contestants for sob stories and
4. Decide singing order, song choice and air time allocation

It might help to reduce the delusion. The judges are just puppets following a script
