Do any of you remember the blonde irish girl from X Factor 1 ? She was the first eliminated in the Live Shows.

I came across her Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/robertahowett ! She's been recording music and has been doing lots of gigs etc. She's got a song on their called "Shadows" which appeared on an album in ireland and has had some publicity their.

Anyway that song "Shadows" I thought shows she was a pretty good singer. Maybe one of the best from Series #1. Although I'll admit the first series was probably the worst series for talent. I think most of them would never make it in the current series.

Anyway what do you think of the song Roberta has on their ? Did she deserve to go further all those years ago ?

Her elimination was a bit random- there didn't seem to be any reason behind it, beyond being on early and Simon's bizzare obsession with Voices With Soul who he also tried to save over G4 a few weeks later.

I remember VWS being asked how they felt about being in the bottom 2 with Roberta on the Xtra Factor and they thanked the judges for making "the fair decision" by saving them. How gracious!

I really liked Roberta in series 1. She's one of the few that I remember. I thought she got robbed to be honest.

I don't remember Roberta at all but after listening to her Myspace I think she's got a good voice. Thanks

I barely remember anything from Series 1! I think I only watched half of it though
