X Factor: The next elimination

For those experiencing Disco music for the first time on Saturday, you're in for a great night. Don't be afraid if you feel an unusual sensation around the groinal area, it's quite normal, just your mind sending a message to your hips that it's time to dance with your pelvis. And certainly don't start crying because the strange man on television is being frightening, that's just Leon and he doesn't mean to look sexually terrifying, he's just doing what he was told by the gay dance instructor. But who's going weeping for real come midnight?

In great danger

Alisha
Alisha is curvier than a Hope sandwich, and should she stop moping because she's been in the bottom two twice, she might start producing the goods. This week, she's doing Candi Staton’s Young Hearts Run Free, and expect lavish praise from the panel as they continue to keep Sharon from storming off.

Beverley
She peaked during Big Band week, and last week's Bottom Two shocker proved that this audience forgets things fast. Her biggest problem is that she brings nothing new to the table (Rowetta/Brenda, both fourth).

Leon
Leon's tough life has so far included “folding trousers” and “servicing the general public”, whatever that means. It’s disco week, he can’t dance, and he’s doing Relight My Fire. Oh no.

Rocky road

Hope
Viewers demand that their singing troupes be related (MacDonald Brothers, Conway Sisters, Journey South etc), so it’s hard to say who would vote for five superhot should-be-WAGs singing Gimme Gimme Gimme – on the plus side, should they find themselves back on Civvy Street they can always take tips from their new pal Leon on “servicing the general public”. Bottom two?

Same Difference
Already absurdly camp, put them in glittery outfits singing Feels Like I’m in Love, and every single fan of swishy things in the country will be shrieking for the phone. They make the MacDonald Brothers look like Nirvana.

Absolutely fine

Niki (singing Hot Stuff) and Rhydian (Go West) are safe – the judges would never vote them out in a bottom two showdown. Not yet anyway.
