Judges Choice
Apologies if this has been discussed to death when I haven't ben arround but I think that the judeges chosing who goes is totally the wrong way to do it. Each week statistically the most likely scenario is that someone from each group will be in the last two, which leaves only one neutral judge and although a jusdge can vote against their act it is unlikely so it is really down to the opinion of one person. I would prefer it to be the audience or if there was a panel of say six judges. It shoulsn't be down to one person who may be thinking about their feud with another judge, potential competiton for their acts or even, like Sharon with Steve personal animosity against a prticular act.
*steps down off the soap box and puts it away for a later date* |

I don't think judges like Louis and SImon (Sharon's OK) shouild be allowed their say on what they have for breakfast, let alone on young people's futures!
We're the ones who'll potentially be buying the records, so it should be our decision who stays in and who leaves the competition. The judges have far too much power IMO.BTW I was worried this topic was going to announce an upcoming Judges' Choice theme night, there's only so many times I can hear Ben (the song), You Raise Me Up, Unchained Melody and Hero....

If an act is in the bottom two at such an early stage, they don't have the following to win. The judges do the job for a living, and are perfectly qualified to make such decisons, they make decisions on young peoples futures all the time!!

Im glad that the judges have some say otherwise it would have meant the end for Dionne and this would in no way have been fair to her given the quality of her performace last week.
