...I will scream!

The last time Alexandra performed before Diana in the running order...was week 4! Every week since Diana's illness, she's been given a slot later in the show than Alexandra and it's not fair.

What Saturday should be:
1st / 2nd - Diana & Eoghan
3rd / 4th - JLS & Alexandra

If Diana or Eoghan perform last, then I'd say they're being favoured by producers to sing in the better slots, especially as some have mentioned that there's an overlap with Strictly Come Dancing tomorrow...maybe that's just me.

I don't think it matters that much anymore. Votes are open after the first half, and so people are voting constantly following each second performance, whereas when voting wasn't open 'till the end of the show, it mattered a lot more, because the last few acts stuck out.

No doubt Diana will go first as she hasn't had that honour yet - or maybe not

I couldn't believe last week when Cheryl was the only one with 2 acts that they were both performing so near the end of the show. I'd like to know how they decide performance order as they certainly don't rotate it fairly...

And what about JLS?

You're referring to 'first' over all, I assume. Afterall, Diana's already performed before Alex, so it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

So it's not fair to be insistant that Diana should perform first this week on the basis that she hasn't done it before, because JLS haven't either, and further more, they were able to close the show when it actually meant something to close it.

It's not an issue now they're into the two song phase.

People pick up the phones after the first performance and can carry on voting right until the end.

I was just replying to the OP's comment re Alex performing before Diana with a tongue in cheek comment. I certainly wasn't insisting that Diana peform first. I really couldn't care less who performs first, last or otherwise now most of the decent talent has gone. I'm not even sure I can be bothered to watch let alone have a debate about who performs when...

Yep, she was last week for the first time.

Jls haven't been first yet either.

At this stage, I truly don't think it matters.

Ooh okay thanks. I got fed up last week, gave up halfway through

I agree it doesn't matter so much anymore, seeing as they're doing two songs.

The lines opening after the first performance means that people will still vote for the people at the end- which will put them ahead. Then people will vote during the performances, so by the time it gets to the end, people are still voting. Then when its the recap people will remember the last performance more.

Not explained in the best way, but hopefully you can see what I'm getting at.

I do. But I think that most people have already made up their minds who they're voting for.

Let's put it this way, if Alexandra is rubbish tomorrow and Diana is amazing, will you pick up the phone and vote for Diana?

We're irrelevant because we are fans of the show and one solid favourite. Its the casual voters or ones with more than one favourite that hold the key.

I've yet to meet one of those. At this point everyone I know knows who they want to win.

Still, between four acts I really don't think running order is important. It's not like it's easy to get forgotten in the crowd.

Much ado about nothing at this stage, if you ask me. Which nobody did.

To be fair, JLS and Alexandra should be last. If Eoghan and Diana are given the last slot it'll prove how much they favour the two

JLS have never opened and, I think, have closed the show.

Peformance order really dosen't matter at this stage of the show though because people have clear favourites. Got a feeling JLS will close the show and Diana will open it, though.
