When we first got married Craig was studying at the Royal College of Art in London. As they looked a bit 'way out' being art students the production company went to the college and asked if anyone wanted to be in it. Craig wasn't interested until he was told they were being paid £50 each - we ate that week ;D He was fine with it as the video wasn't on the telly much in the following years - until the advent of You Tube - now we can watch him and slow it down and pause it when he appears dancing like a fool at the back - and take the piss ;D ;D He was not impressed at a party earlier in the year with all his workmates. The disco was playing the videos to the songs, so I requested I'm Your Man and made sure the whole room was watching ;D It had to be done Awwww that's really sad about Buster I saw Paul and him at a train station in London a few years back and he was lovely. People were going up to stroke Buster and Paul didn't mind a bit. Hope things are getting easier Dee, I remember it's the silly little things that catch you and make you remember.

Tonight's songs: (don't forget they can be changed) WHAM WEEK Stacey If I Can't Make You Love Me Download from iTunes | Joe Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me Lloyd Faith Danyl Careless Whisper Olly Fast Love John and Edward I'm Your Man Lloyd is definitely in trouble I can see Olly struggling too. Danyl will have to be very, very good to get away with Careless Whisper. Stacey and Joe will be ok - and I can't wait to see the twins ;D ;D

My take on tonight: Lloyd: Poor Lloyd, on first again, they really don't want him there ;D Thought he was in tune more than he usually is tonight, didn't like his haircut though Surely he's gone this week?? 5/10 Stacey: A few tuning issues, but thought she was good. Can't help thinking they are recycling Leona though 7/10 Jedward: Blimey, they actually sang in tune tonight Still the most entertaining act of the night ;D (Had to sit on Craig to stop him travelling back to 1986 in his mind and joining in ) 8/10 Danyl: He sounded off key all through the performance to me Careless whisper is such an iconic song, that meddling with it just does not sound right. I really hope he goes this week 3/10 Olly: I thought he'd have problems with this. His vocals were a bit ropey again, he sounded better as the song went on though. 6/10 Joe: Not a particular fan of Joe, I can't see him as a pop star, but he was superb tonight, definitely the best of the night 9/10 I predict Lloyd and Danyl in bottom two, I reckon it will go to deadlock and Danyl will go - but I've not got it right yet this year, so ignore me ;D

Came in late tonight, have it recorded so have not seen Lloyd or Stacey yet. Twins, really enjoyed their performance
Danyl, Poss my fav GM song and agree Kim it should be sang as it is he made a right hash of it.
Olly, Not a lover of this song, not a great start but got better from the middle onwards.
Joe , Thought he was fantastic his vocals are perfect my fav performance of the series so far...Great day for the NorthEast...Joe brilliant and Sunderland beating Arsenal...I'm ,Happy,happy ;D ;D
Out of what I have seen Danyl in the bottom 2

LMAO what are you like Joyce!!! ;D ;D Ok, here;s my take: Lloyd - Not bad but not good, I liked his new look though Stacey - I felt sorry for her, yet another male week! Liked her performance though Jedward - Really enjoyed it but did think the backing vocals were drowning them out at one point, loved the medley though ;D Danyly - I actually thought I was listening to a different performance than the judges except Cheryl, I actually agreed with her. I thought he sounded flat too! Olly - I agree, he started off a bit ropey but once he got into it he was great, I loved his styling tonight too Joe - Thought he sang it really well but still think he's more suited to the stage than pop. Louis likened him to Michael Buble, I was thinking more Michael ball. Bottom 2 - Danyl & lloyd My preference - Danyl to go Who I think will go - lloyd

Hi guys. Here is my take on the acts. Lloyd - I thought he was good tonight, and I liked his new look as well. Think he may pick up a few more female fans as well now he looks quite hot. lol Not me though. ;D Maybe that was the reason behind the haircut and the bronzer, to try and keep him out of the bottom 2. We will see tonight whether it paid off or not. Stacey - Wasn't a big fan of Stacey tonight. I thought her vocals were a bit shakey. Not as good a performance as the previous week. John and Edward - Their vocals didn't sound too bad at all did they? Another fun packed performance from them. Danyl - I liked the different arrangement to this song. He put his own stamp on it, and I thought he did really well. He does have a cheesy smile though. ;D Olly - Liked his performance, but in parts the vocals were a bit ropey I agree. He is a great performer though, and very likeable. Joe - Best performance of the night for me. He never hits a bum note. Always seems to be note perfect. But he isn't a popstar I agree. Bottom 2 - I have a lot to live up to after getting my predictions right last week don't I? ;D I think maybe Lloyd and Stacey. Lloyd will go. It's a tough one though this week.

Can't say I was totally surprised at Olly being in the bottom two. His last two performances were not up to scratch. He didn't sound much better in the sing off, he was nearly as off key as Jedward Sorry to see Jedward go, but glad Olly stayed. How the hell is Lloyd still there Your crystal ball needs polishing Caz, it didn't work this week ;D

I was totally shocked to see Olly in the bottom 2!! I thought the audience were very cruel to Jedward I could've cried for them I know Olly has been a bit iffy of late but I still think he has more X Factor than most of them who are left. I'm really glad he was saved but I will miss Jedward Might have to stick a vote in for Olly next week ;D

lol I know Kim. I'm losing my touch. ;D Although it looks like I was right with my comments about Lloyd's new haircut gaining him a few more female fans, as it seems to have done the trick and kept him out of the bottom 2. I am sad to see the twins go as they have kept me entertained week after week. The show won't be the same without them. I agree about the booing. It's so uncalled for. Shocked that Olly was in the bottom also as I thought he would have been safe with performing second from last. It just goes to show that you never know how it's going to pan out. If the theory is true then that all past winners have never been in the bottom 2, it means that either Joe or Stacey will win. Please god not the latter. ;D

Damm your crystal ball this week Caz So sad to see the twins go, but out of the two it was the right decision. What I cant understand is why they were took out of their comfort zone in a song for survival But in saying that the words were very apt for the booing idiots. They were true winners tonight, they left with dignity intact. The foul mouthed yobs who booed them are still in the gutter where they belong.

I hate Relight my fire as well Kim. It will be interesting to see if Danyl can make this naff song sound good. I thin Stacey has the best song choices this week.
