None of them deserve to win. They all are rubbish and not one of them is even half as good as Leona.
All the contestants are overrated especially Diana and Eggnog. If you compare Rhydians performance last week with the rest of the contestants you will see the difference in class. |

I would disagree, I think the talent overall this year has been far better than last years - Austin, Laura and Alex have far better voices than people last year and JLS are a much better group than any from last year. I agree with you, however, on Diana and Eoghan

And it will be a diana and eggnog final.
If anyone does deserve to win it has got to be Ruth. |

I thought that girl with the awful hair - Hannah I think her name was - was a better singer than the lot of them put together. But she wasn't gorgeous, and it's all about looks these days. I do think Ruth and Alexandra are pretty good, but yes, there isn't anyone that's a patch on Leona.

Series 1 - G4, Rowetta Series 2 - Brenda, Shayne, Andy, Journey South, Maria Series 3 - Leona, Ben Series 4 - Rhydian, Niki Series 5 - Diana, Ruth, Laura, Alexandra, Rachel, JLS and to some extent Austin |

Last year's lot, Rhydian aside, were awful. Leon, in particular.
Can't agree about this year though. At least six out of the final twelve are quality acts, worthy of a record deal, in my opinion. |

All the acts that are left are there thanks to Joe Public, they voted out the two best singers in back to back weeks, or at least put them in the bottom two so the judges were able to vote them out. As has been said many times before, viewers tend to prefer a sob story or a gimmick to a genune talent. That's how it is on shows like this unfortunately.
And ultimatly that will be it's downfall. |

I think it's been one of the best line ups this year. Last year I only thought Rhydian, Niki, Beverly and Same Difference were worthy of being in the final twelve. In comparison, this year, I think we've seen a lot more talent.

Series 2 and series 5 are my favourites. I thought last year's series was relatively dull - the only contestants I can remember are Leon, Rydian and Same Difference.

Definitely. Just look at Same Difference with their psychotic smiles "We ARE happy! WE ARE!". Looks like the bloody Shining where Jack comes through the bathroom door.

While I'd agree Austin has an excellent voice, he sounds almost identical to Lee Ryan. I don't rate Laua at all. Alexandra, Rachel and Ruth are better in my opinion. |

Going into this series I thought it was potentially the best. But too many of those who shone at the auditions and bootcamp woefully underperformed - Laura and Diana to name two.

So far, the potential has not come through as well as it could but this year's talent is miles better than last years but in comparison to some other years it is not as hot.
My only wish is that the theme weeks were scraped. If we did not have these, the artists (and mentors) could select songs to suit their own style and we would see the true potential that each one had to offer. The sing offs have been generally amazing and so isn't this a message to the judges? |

I think it's 50/50 they've had some terrible ones make the finals like Bad Lashes, Daniel, Scott but they've also had really great ones like Ruth, Alex, Laura and I guess Diana if you're into that kind of thing.
It's a totally mish mash of good/bad singers this year. |
