James at 17/2 to go out looked an immense price when KB quoted it, I'm glad I was in no position to pounce on it as he's 99% safe now.

A Jahmene-James-Chris 1-2-3 looks more likely than not to me. Though in this season, that's probably a good sign it won't happen!

I think the changed odds may agree with you there:

Union J = 4/5
Christopher = 12/5
James = 7/1
Jahmene = 14/1

Ouch at the semi final viewing figures, not good at all

Here we go...

James is through...

Christopher is through...

Jahmene is through...

Union J are gone.

So...it's all over for Union J.

Never mind, Christopher will be out in third in the final next week. Jahmene & James for the final two guaranteed!

Is my vision of Jahmene being called out as the winner going to come true? As long as Christopher doesn't win I don't mind.

No, Maloney is winning.

He simply must do. None of the other two are worthy enough. Jahmene, I'm quite confident, will do well for himself as a runner-up ALA Rhydian, Olly Murs... Chico.

But James Arthur ? Not even Butlins would have him.

I think the mid-week winning act odds may disagree with you:

Jahmene = 5/4
James = 6/4
Christopher = 7/2

I really hope Christopher doesn't win.

Jahmene is actually value at 5/4. Every historical precedent points to him winning (nobody's survived a drop-zone visit to win, nobody's split the nation and won).

Christopher cannot win this - if he's top two, whoever's left with him will get votes, even from people who don't rate him especially highly but simply want Christopher to lose. The only possible tension from a final two would be James-Jahmene, and I'd be favouring the latter if it comes to that. James may be on form, but Jahmene has the larger established fan base.

Winning odds before the Grand Final:

Jahmene = 11/8
James = 7/5
Christopher = 4/1

I like those odds.

Here we go...

Maloney to win !!!!

YES.

Not the quiet shy little church mouse!

My rankings:

1. James - Feeling Good
2. James & Nicole - Make You Feel My Love
3. Jahmene & Nicole - The Greatest Love Of All
4. Christopher & Gary - Rule The World
5. Christopher - What A Feeling
6. Jahmene - Move On Up

Jahmene was awful opening the show. He could be a goner if the public decide to be unpredictable.

Torn between wanting Maloney to lose horribly and Cowell to lose horribly.

Because a strong ITV1 is still highly valuable to fans of big-money game shows I'm going for the former.

I have to say that I am very surprised at Jahmene and James has just come from nowhere as twice he has knocked me down!

Good heavens, I think Jahmene could be gone in a shocker!

Soon we will find out who's in third place...

Rita was looking amazing.

Kylie looks great for her age...although I think a lot of make-up is involved!
