...would there be a sixth series of X Factor or would they rebrand it and start again with a similar format in a year or so's time?

who knows????

if daniel wins i dont think people will bother watching nxt yr as it would just be a joke, i know i wouldn't bother.

I am not sure if I would watch it or not, but thanks OP, you have given me an idea for a thread.

I think it's unlikely that Rachel or Daniel will win. Other than that, it's still wide open at this stage.
