They usually give something to think about:

Sofabet has been one of my favourite things about XF since 2011. They have a good idea of what will happen to each contestant on the most part.

Love Sofabet, would love to write with them!

They are fab for Eurovision too

I think the tinfoil hat is on a little tight with Matt and Emily. I think Matt's interview was mostly an editing goof and Emily probably was legitimately being a little difficult behind the scenes, rather than them being terrified of some runaway Scottish vote. Maybe they were worried Sofabet picked her to win last week!

They're right to dismiss the conspiracies on 4D (4oD?) though.

Fun to read, but way over the top.
I honestly can't see producers going into that much detail

If you read in the archives about the 2014 series, they are so on point with the treatment towards Fleur from producers. I love Fleur but the producers can be relentless in terms of pushing for what they want vote-wise. I wasn't complaining though when it benefited Fleur.

cool.

They really do though.

I'll think back to series 10 when Nicholas topped the week he sung Adele, and then after that it was Halo, Candy, and The Greatest Day which saw him nearly fall behind Luke at the end because they'd damaged him that badly.

Interesting re the testing the water theory with Sam.

She is still the most identikit big voiced female that the publuc tend to vote for

Ha off course they do, below is a great case study
