X Factor SHOCK: Same Difference now in second place

The sickening siblings are making a late dash

Still singing: Valley Boy, Tears, Two Turds

Everyone knows that Christmas is a depressing time. Watching your elderly nan slurping turkey through a straw, paper crowns doing little to mask the lunchtime tension as rival factions from the family put on crocodile smiles. Television is the one saving grace. And Same Difference might ruin all that by dominating Christmas Top of The Pops.

Just a day before the grand final, the foul twosome have snuck ahead of trembling Leon in the betting stakes, and with Cowell behind the wheel ferociously shining the most rancid of turds, he could pull off a miracle.

Already he is the most successful judge, with two previous winners from three (Steve and Leona), and Same Diffs have already equaled the best finishing spot for singing families (on a par with Journey South, the blank-eyed would-be-killers from series two). With little tots bouncing up and down to their revoltingly sugary pop songs, floating voters might just think "ah what the heck" and give them a fighting chance. Oh God.
