Just because she sounds like Chris off of "Show Me, Show Me" doing Humpty Dumpty.

Surely not voting them out when they are clearly the most awful act to ever appear on X-Factor, despite the fact he's slagged them off from day one, is saving them. Whether or not he thought Lucy could win is irrelevant. He always says "we're going to judge it now on the song they sing here", and there is no way on god's green earth anyone with working ears could say Jedward's performance was better than Lucy's in the sing-off. If this is meant to be a talent competition as Simon tries to say it is, then the twins should have been voted off tonight. Instead, Simon did his best to keep them in by letting it go to deadlock. Whether that's simply for the controversy or because he thought Lucy was a threat to his acts is irrelevant, he should have done the right thing and keep the most talented act in (which considering Jedward have no talent should always be an easy decision). It really does make a mockery of the show.

Simon Cowell isn't stupid and I'd be amazed if he didn't know the way the vote goes before he makes his choice, after all, it's his show.

This is the most viewed series in X-Factor history despite being the most talentless and there is only one reason for that and that's John and Edward. Just eliminating them would be stupid because that's all the newspaper talk, media criticism/hype and social media stuff down the drain and all those bring additional viewers in every single week.

Whilst I totally acknowledge that they can't sing, John and Edward are the only act I'm remotely interested in watching every week.

Who do you want to save...

a) The best act
b) The worse act
c) The act who will get the most publicity
d) The act most likely to cause my 'acts' trouble

Appalled. And complete agree with you. If you ignore all the past and base it on that performance there is no question.

Technically, not.

Maybe so. By his actions he saved them but he didn't choose to save them specifically. You can't deny that, it's in all it's glory on catch-up/you tube etc. If he'd saved them there would have been no deadlock and no public vote, so it's a little more than semantics imo.

Hmmmm, they must breed kids different down your way, they're all scared of Stacey up here!

At the end of the day guys, it's a TV show. You don't like it, turn over, far more worthy things to get upset about in life!!

What the chuff would we all debate if Jedward left? Part of me thinks we would all be bored without them.
