Goes on what they're going to sing of course and how they perform on the night but at a pure guess I would say Wagner and Katie in trouble.  I don't bet on the eviction markets but they would be my choices.

would like to see the running order before placing a bet of course!

if wagner's on early, he could be in trouble.  likewise belle amie.

didn't see katie's sing off performance but a few people have said she was decent so that might have picked her up a few fans.  however i would guess that she came 2nd bottom in the vote this week.  the only reason i think this is that they clearly wanted her to stay ahead of FYD and they didn't let it go to deadlock - which suggests to me that she came 2nd bottom.

which in turn would suggest that the 5/1 is a big price.

GB - that's the other i'd want to know, what's the theme?

are there rumours of it being madonna week?

there's talk of DS that there's going to be a cher week, with cher herself singing gypsies, tramps and thieves.

cj - i'd assume there are double eviction each week until they're back on track number-wise.

just a guess though.

Surely has to be another double eviction for the next 2 or probably 3 weeks.

you would think so, but I would like it confirmed
By:
Helmuthian Folds

CJ, have a feeling it may not be officially confirmed until Saturday evening.

Remember all they care about is the voters and not the gamblers and the voters have no need to know until the phone lines open.

it will definitely be a double eviction and for my money paige is in a spot of bother
By:
GymTanLaundry
When: 11 Oct 10 16:20
yep, paije could be one of the ones in bother, especially if he gets an early slot (good chance i'd say given that the other two bots are matt who went early this week and aiden who had the big performance).

i'd want to hear some strong rumours about the theme though.

HF I think you are probably right, we won't know till Saturday. Sad

I don't know why they are introducing all the secrecy. It's daft and turning a good show into a farce.

As for the elimination, I was amazed Katie wasn't the least popular this week but am sure she will be this week. The show can do all it tries, but even this is beyond Cowell.

It also seems as if people are severely underestimating Wagner. Of course he won't win, but he is likable and isn't dreadful like Diva Fever.

I like Diva Fever entertainment wise of the two so it just proves how opinions differ.  Don't think Wagner will be around too long but possibly a buy at 200 with a view to laying?

If it's madonna, there's no way Katie will be eliminated. Absolutely no chance. The madonna week has come so early to save her skin! In fact can anyone explain to me why the judges want katie in? I know it's 'publicity' but it's not good publicity. Before you say it, I know any publicity is good publicity but a machine like X Factor doesn't need katie to keep viewing figures up for goodness sake! Nevertheless the consensus is that katie has to stay so she will sing last on saturday and be 'the star'. she won't get many votes, but she won't be in the bottom three. No chance.

As for Wagner - surely him doing madonna would be so hilarious he'd get a lot of comedy votes.

What on earth is this show coming to. Wagner is someone we were meant to be finding funny in the early auditions - he wasn't meant to be at judges house, let alone the live show! i dont get why a retired pe teacher/miguel angel jimenez is singing alongside people who genuninly have dreams to be a pop star. too many weirdos. Who thinks it's actually entertaining? i'd seriously rather have 12 acts who were all realistic pop stars in their own way (no harm in people like cher who are different) than the likes of wagner, diva fever, nicolo, storm etc who the public will get bored of once the novelty has worn off. It's just pathetic and feels like the competition won't start properly until about 8 are left.

Diva Fever will probably stand out doing madonna. im curious to know what John will do. They will have to give him one of madonna's most tuneful ones and there can be no doubt he'll be able to make it his own. That will hopefully, for his sake, allow him to shake the invisible man tag. doubt he'll get a spot near the end of the show tho. they don't care about him. will probably chuck him in near the beginning again. Such a shame to stitch someone up like that. i want him to survive purely because he has no gimmicks. not that im a fan of having a 'stand there and sing nicely' winner but id much rather he stays than weird crap.

I reckon they'll give one of the guys "frozen", but not sure about the rest.

If they want someone out they'll give them "music" or "holiday".

John needs to tell Louis what he's doing - not the other way around Novelty

He has the experience. If he lets Louis choose, he deserves all he gets imho

Actually it does. I agree with you that it's more like a freak show than a singing contest but it's all about viewing figures.

Somebody on another thread says that who wins is the only thing Cowell worries about but the money is in the TV show. If they got 12 million viewers last time then what Cowell worries about is it slipping to 11 mill, and how to get 13 mill next time.

Why have they only put up a 3rd elimination market?

I was expecting a "To be eliminated" or "Bottom 3" market as well.

Thank you for your e-mail.

We are waiting for confirmation as to whether it’s a double eviction this week. If it is announced on Saturday’s show then a 4th Elimination market will be activated

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further enquiries.
