Do we think Leona will win then? Was watching Xcess All Areas and you could tell Ben wasn't best pleased about being voted out last week.

They'll all get record contracts including Eton Road. I reckon Simon had a hand in Leona and Ray being in the final two. Some form of cheating has taken place.

ben definitely deserved to win - he has the most talent by far.

ray, on the other hand, has proven something of a miracle to get to the final. the guy really is that talentless.

leona? keeps on singing the same drippy songs, but i guess she can hold a tune quite well. so she deserves to win now.

Ben should have won. he was original, mature and could even (!!!) play an instrument.

Leona has a wonderful voice but cannot stretch herself further than trying to be an R&B diva. That's boring.

Ray, well, he sounded wobbly and out of tune at best when he sang You'll Never Walk Alone - plus it's an old Liverpool cliche. He should not be in the final. I would not pay to see him sing.

I did wonder if it was fixed because so many people - including me - have said they would be pleased to see either Ben or Leona win. Now people are suddenly interested in the final again as there is a clear deserving winner.

I won't be watching. I don't like either of the finalists.

I must say I find them annoying too. There's something about Leona that is very irritating, you can tell she's the sort where it will all go to her head once she wins.

I don't like her. I think she is a very insincere person.

That's exactly what I've been thinking about her but didn't know how to put it into words. Every time they question her she always says "I'm just so glad to be here singing and doing what I love"

'Its what I've dreamt of since I was a little girl' Agggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

If I had a penny for everytime she has said that in an interview I'd be very rich.

They all trot out the same old cliches every week.

Whitney Houston's record label wants to sign her now according to Simon.

Although she's got a fantastic voice I don't like all that wobbling she does with every song she sings. She is a Whitney clone with a bit of Moria thrown in.

I must say that Ray sounded much better this week but he just cannot hit those bottom notes! For such a youngster, he's got an enormous amount of talent but his fan base is surely limited to teenage girls and grannies.

Ben was by far the most original and talented singer but the British public are far too safe and  middle-of-the-road to vote him on to win.

Stewart?

Simon has already offered Ray a record deal - even though the acts are officially contracted to the show until March and shouldn't be signing deals.

I bet they get him to do a covers album.

Let's hope it doesn't include You'll Never Walk Alone.

I read that the time Steve Brookstein won the X Factor he argued with Cowell and didn't get his 1 million record deal.

As predicted Leona is the Christmas number one.

Still. It could have been worse. Cliff Richard could have been No 1 again!

Did anyone see the Charlotte Church show where she sang White Christmas witth the Sugarbabes? That could have been a good number one for Christmas.
