Erm -- my response to this thread - louison

Firstly - All 4 Joesphs had a chance to sing with Josh Groban but HE CHOSE Lee. There was no favouritism.

Secondly - Keith gets just as much "push" as Lee.

Thirdly - ALW has already saved Lewis twice from the sing off, what more do you want for him?

Fourthly - voting for people you dont even like, just to get the talented one out of the running is eally pathetic in my opinion. If Lee wins he will win because hes the best, just like if any of the others win. NONE of them should win because a few disgruntled Daniel / Seamus / Chris fans are upset that their favourite got voted off.

Fifthly - I dont think the producers have edited Lee in a good light any more than they have the others. I do think Daniels last week wasnt edited that well but otherwise all seem to have been fair to me.

And finally, erm - Sixthly?! WHY ON EARTH would people waste money on voting for someone they DESPISE? THAT is just petty and stupid and if anything, is making a mockery out of the show even more.

THE END.

Louison, dear, it was always going to be a very dangerous thing to do down Lee Mead, his fans are even more fanatical than we Daniel Boys followers!

Now I have nothing against Lee, but I dont think its a fair competition. None of the other contestants have been given nearly as much push.

So here is my idea, and its really for all the people who's favourite is gone from the competition and they no longer vote. People who want Keith, Ben or Lewis to win keep going with the voting. But people that have stopped since Daniel or Chris or whoever left vote once. Just one vote a week. Throw it to any of the 3 you like. Just dont vote for Lee.

Every year in every reality show producers edit in favour of one contestant. Its called 'The Chosen One' edit and its very effective in getting that contestant to win. So even if you hate Keith, despise Ben or detest Lewis throw one vote their way. Lets turn this around and maybe next year we will get a more fair competition.”

LOL - this has got to be the most ridiculous thread ever - stupidity at every other word!

You can't balme the producer! It is hard for people to ignore beauty when they see it!

Now what on earth do these have to do with anything? Sour grapes over what exactly. There is no contestant gone that I have felt hard done by. I have no sour grapes against anything except the clear favouritism being shown towards one contestant over another. If Keith was being pushed forward the thread would be 'Operation Get Rid of Keith'.

About lilbits comment. Benefit? How on earth would I benefit from Lee leaving. I dont have a favourite in the competition so it isnt a matter of me wanting Lee out in favour of someone else. They all have their strengths and weaknesses so I find it hard to pick a favourite at the moment.

You know i've posted three or four times in this thread. Each time clarifying and explaining. Each time being quite polite, because I have no problem with any poster. And yet each time my posts are met with rather childish replies.

Lee has his fans and I respect that they will not like this thread. In the real world you have discussions with people you dont agree with, you learn to agree to differ. But I have found that this really isnt the forum for that. I like debate, I like a good discussion. I don't mind when I am in the minority and I do like it when people change my mind. But they dont do that by calling me sad and making other derogartory comments. Clearly I should have posted this elsewhere.”

To put it politely Is not what you did In the first place perhaps ..You seem articulate enough to speak out your view in the thread ..but to start a thread ..get rid of Lee ?
That is not a debate It is a message that you want to upset people ..I know you will go on probably again...but whatever, It is a programme open to debate as It Involves peoples choices ...but It is also highly insulting to say we are all manipulated Into voting ..even If it may be bias.
I am so fed up on these reality shows where they cry 'sob I was badly edited '
I make my own judgements ..as do other Intelligent people on here.
Or perhaps you are suggesting there are some dimwits around
