well they were certainly different but not in a good way .I am sorry but I hated them. They would not have sold many records who would have bought them. Most are bought by youngsters and I cannot see many kids buying them.They had no idea how to dress either .

I though they all had a bad selection of songs. Bit surprised at the results to be honest

Mrs P Your right about the image but wrong about the vocal range. X Factor - don't think so. Karioki(sp) - ok at the end of the night !! Libby

Libby..the combined vocal range was great...u had everything there...maybe it just didn't go together on the nightx

Mrs P Don't think it's gone right every time they have been on. But hey that's what it is all about - each to his own. Libby x

Libby..don't get me wrong...i thought they should have gone...as they did............but,i think to have got as far as they did in the game,with the biz the way it is should be applauded.........they were being themselves........no image just singingxxxxxxxx

Mrs P Can't disagree with you there. Wouldn't it have been awful though if that young lad who went out last week (16yr old) had got through until tonight and then gone the same way as the Unconventionals. I would have cried buckets. I just wanted to give him a hug. Still love the programme. Libby x

I think the young lad (Shaun?) would have gained confidence as the weeks went on if his voice had been stronger, but I think he will have to try again when he is a bit older. He was so sweet tho, and so much like his mum to look at, bless him. When Sharon told him to take a break and come back, and he said 'Can I?' I just went! Have to say he reminded me a little bit of George Formby!!! Liz
