This happed years ago on the first Pop Idol when Rik Waller was replaced by Darius Danish who had been voted out due to illness. I remember Rik had pulled out a couple of times before. If this happens to Diana who seems to have had the same thing on the X. I think things could be the same and I hope and assume Laura will take her place.

Actually Laura was better than Diana, although they are both boring/forgettable.

No they will just go on and just have 2 in the final

And no act should come back once voted off imo.

No, they'll just have two in the final if Diana leaves.

Which I don't think she will.

I think the final should be JUST Diana singing ALL the songs on the night ( the others could be backing singers I suppose !)

She's gonna win so easily anyway - it will be embarrasing for the others whe they announce Diana wins with a voting percentage of 85% of whatever !

Diana is the SECOND fave in the week 6 poll in this very forum and she didn't even SING !!!

True. If the support really isn't there, there's just no point. Besides which, how crappy would it feel to come back knowing that you're less popular than the others? I think once it gets to the live performances and public votes, there shouldn't be any messing about with the line-up.

It was a slightly different format for Pop Idol and Darius had never been voted off. He hadn't been originally selected for the top 10 (12?) by the judges but was reinstated only after Rik Waller wasn't able to sing for two weeks.

I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think Darius was ever voted off by the public...well not until he was in the top 3 anyway.

Nobody replaced Emily last year.

Edit: I have hust noticed that you are talking about Pop Idol 2 in which case I don't know who you are referring to, sorry.

Actually nobody is voted off. People vote for acts. Even the judges supposedly vote to save an act. That's the difference with BB where you do vote people out and so when someone came back they had to refund the cost of the calls.

I think the final should be JUST Diana singing ALL the songs on the night ( the others could be backing singers I suppose !)

She is certainly not going to win easily since Eoghan (love him or hate him) has actually been in the lead in terms of phone votes from the first programme.

Nope, not true. You are correct that the public vote FOR an act, but the judges always vote AGAINST. That's why they say "Dermot, the act I'm sending home tonight is..."

Who's Kimberley, She was never a judge. There is Kimberley Walsh who was Cheryl's mentor during the semi stages

She's not coming back. And not everyone wants her back. Like all the people who didn't vote for her. Deal with it.

I guess cause Laura beat all those based on the fact she went out later.
