Re: The X Factor 2007

Eh. Sometimes I just blindly cut-and-paste stuff. Bettingzone's preview if anyone wants it: http://www.bettingzone.co.uk/story_g...al_201623.html

Very weird tonight because of the Rugby World Cup and all that. First up there's a two hour show between 5:30pm-7:30pm and then the results show is at 10pm-10:35pm.

It seems that unless there's a really strong act that those performing in the first hour are most likely to be eliminated (pretty much like Eurovision). Today is therefore very ripe for betting in-running.

No idea of the performance/running order but the songs are out:

Boys ~
Andy Williams: Rod Stewart's I Don't Want To Talk About It
Leon Jackson: The Beatles' Can't Buy Me Love
Rhydian Roberts: Meatloaf's I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)

Girls ~
Kimberley Southwick: The Weathergirls' It's Raining Men
Alisha Bennett: Gabrielle's Dreams
Emily Nakanda: George Michael's I Knew You Were Waiting For Me

Over 25's ~
Beverley Trotman: Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive
Daniel De Bourg: Bryan Adams' Heaven
Niki Evans: Sinead O Connor's (or Prince if you want to) Nothing Compares 2 U

Groups ~
Futureproof: Shania Twain's She's the One
Hope: Rihanna's Umbrella
Same Difference: Bee Gees' Tragedy

Odds from William Hill as to who'll be the first to be eliminated:

Same Difference ( Simon ) 3/1
Rhydian ( Danni ) 4/1
Niki ( Louis ) 5/1
Kimberley ( Sharon ) 11/2
Beverley ( Louis ) 7/1
Alisha ( Sharon ) 7/1
Emily ( Sharon ) 12/1
Leon ( Danni ) 16/1
Hope ( Simon ) 16/1
Futureproof ( Simon ) 16/1
Daniel D ( Louis ) 16/1
Andy ( Danni ) 16/1

Odds from Ladbrokes as to who'll be the first to be eliminated:

Same Difference 11/4
Rhydian Roberts 4/1
Niki Evans 5/1
Alisha Bennett 11/2
Kimberley Southwick 9/1
Emily Nakanda 14/1
Hope 14/1
Andy Williams 20/1
Daniel De Bourg 25/1
Futureproof 25/1
Leon Jackson 25/1

Bizarrely Ladbrokes don't have Beverley Tortman's odds to be eliminated tonight.

It's probably worth a punt on those in the middle of the pack with all the girls being touted to some degree as likely to be eliminated first and despite the punt on the brother-sister duo, Same Difference may 'inexplicably' survive this week.

A strain for phone voters who like to gamble as I'm pretty sure it's 'vote to save' not 'vote to get rid of' innit?

No bet for me though but I'll keep a watching brief.
