He is a poor man's Steve Brookstein, he should never have made the final 12 and never would have done without his sob story.

He's David Brent with a dead wife sob story.

I have to agree. I am sorry for his loss, but let's get real here. He would have been out at Boot Camp stage (or not even put through) if his wife was alive.

I feel no emotion watching him!

WTF I'm sick of hearing these stupid sob stories. Everyone has lost somebody and the pain will always be the same. I think if my dog died I'd be as upset as a partner dying. I've lost my granndad who I loved very much. I wouldn't use that to open any doors for me. Funny enough he always used to make me sing. Him and my nan used to love me and my sister singing

This dude has no more talent than a pub singer!

He is sh*t!!

I think he got through by default. The girls were better, but they probs needed at least one guy to make the numbers up or it would have been a skewed competition. The other guy was crap, so Mr. Cheese got in by process of elimination I should think.

Hope he goes in week one

He's one of the most overrated acts of the season.

Agreed, he's rubbish. Can't stand Austin either even though he can sing. Does anyone else get fed up with all the weeping and wailing? I just want to see singing.

Sharon last year put through that girl who "nearly died" on the basis of her sob story (kicked out for being a "happy slapper") - it is so annoying.

Agree 100% but I have a horrible feeling he will do quite well because the public will like him despite him being one of the worst vocalists in the competition.

It's this dreaded "likeability" factor that Simon & Co. are so hung up on that means the real talent suffers.

Nice enough guy, but based on talent he doesn't deserve to be in the final, not even close. Suzie was way more talented imo and should have gone through. She had IT, mesmerizing to watch and all.

I hope Suzie comes back next year or something rather than give up completely like she said

Come on public, rebel! Get him in the bottom two the first week! But that will be a girl and one of the groups, of course.

Yes the black group will go first - there is no justice with the GBP.

Well, I really like his voice - though he needs to stop with the sob story already.

To be fair it is the show who keep showing that same clip of him saying his wife had died and Cheryl looking shocked.

The worst of the final 12 by far. And the only really big sob story to get through, what with Alan and Amy not making it. He won't go that early I fear though.

I dunno, we haven't had a chubby middle aged cabaret singer win it yet.

Yeah, it's just a nightmare to have a job like everyone else in the country, so unbearable for these "artists." Singing is all they have ever wanted to do, all they imagine themselves doing, and this is the chance of a lifetime, and if it doesn't happen now they will give it up and have to go back to earning their money, which is just a nightmare, and they want to make a better life for their kids, and by the way, someone close to them just died / their leg just fell off / they forgot to put the gateau in the freezer and it's melted everywhere, boo hoo hoo.

Seems like a nice guy but his voice does nothing for me. I can see him going out very early in the live show. And let's hope he doesn't play on his sob story too much to get the sympathy vote.

I know!! I can't believe Danni put him through to the live shows, and sent home the girl from 411! A joke, I tell 'ya!
