so 10M votes and 18M viewers in the UK?
500,000 patriotic irish could surely add at least 500K. |

I reckon you could pencil in 1m Irish, North, South and Scotland voters in for a final

Irish could vote in series 1-4 apparently but really had nobody to support (see below). Eggnog was from NI so may or may not have got Irish vote though he's no Mary. I reckon it will mean about 200,000 votes for her in final which coul dmake the difference. Should get her to last 3 though.
Irish contestants have reached the finals in series 1 (Tabby Callaghan and Roberta Howett), series 2 (The Conway Sisters), series 6 (John & Edward) and in series 7 (Mary Byrne, Rebecca Creighton in group Belle Amie and Niall Horan in group One Direction). Northern Irish finalists have included Phillip Magee (series 2) and Eoghan Quigg (series 5). |

yep, with 70% going to Mary.

eoghan wouldn't have picked up that many votes in the final.
he was really "irish". |
|
By:
oh ok.
I remember Kris Allen's home state apparently made up a huge % of the final vote. Not that he needed them. |
|
By:
He'd have done better.
Also if he'd sung with Maria Carey instead of cunting Westlife |
|
By:
ok, let's try to get the "irish vote" in context chaps.
do you think more, less or the same number of irish people will watch the x factor because mary byrne was a live chance? |

Is the Pope a bit catholic papa?
|
|
By:
Many more.
|
|
By:
More. 600k. I'll ahve a look at Scottish twitters to see if there is a celtic link.
|
|
By:
I would say 1m viewers for a final involving Mary, in line with rest of UK
Plus NI, plus Scotland increased proportion of support |
|
By:
You know you'd throw a few votes Mary's way if she made the final Papa ;)
|
|
By:
i'm not irish fll, but honestly, i cannot understand this thinking that more irish people will watch the show because of mary.
i'm very open to being persuaded otherwise though!! |
|
By:
and more importantly i would never cast a vote on this sh!te!!!!

They are all too skint to go out drinking, but need a bit of feelgood factor and pride before xmas
All the better if Cowell is banking on Paedo Project romping home |
|
By:
oh sorry Papa, I thought you were.
More watching not only because Mary is a big runner, but also because they can vote, strikes me as common sense. Common sense is often wrong though. I've been looking for this years ratings and can't find them. I'd be surprised if they weren't up though |
|
By:
Yup Scots mums on board. Generally about 95% positive tweets. How does that compare with rest of UK?
My mum just chanted "we want mary!" Love it! ♥ my mum was voting for mary and dialed the wrong number and voted for storm lmao! |
|
By:
don't get me wrong, x factor is huge in ireland, however not being able to vote on it wouldn't have stopped people watching it before, not for my money anyway.
|
|
By:
Lets face it. She should be favourite :)
|
|
By:
Certainly represents value but I can't help seeing her as a club singer Summed up by the vocal coach who very interestingly pointed out difference between Vic Reeves club singer and a ture star. Very subtle and not sure if Mary can make that switch. Can't lose on her trading wise though.
What was your best price on her fll? |
