X Factor 2009 Programme 2

I watched last nights X Factor and Xtra Factor, big fan in case you didn't realise. It was another excellent show with the usual mix of misfits and genuinely talented people. I wish there was more concentration on the good talent rather than the deluded people some of whom, judging by their body language and verbal skills, have got some form of learning difficulties to a greater or lesser extent. Should those people be exploited the way they are to millions of people to laugh at and to be ridiculed in front of thousands of people and the judging panel? I'm not so sure. I always find it uncomfortable viewing.

The highlights of this weeks show was Rozelle Phillip who came all the way from Trinidad and Tobago just to take part, Miss Fitz girl band formed by 2006 participant who failed to get to the finals - Jemma, Daryl Markham a 40 year old cabinet maker from East Sussex, (with a really sad story to tug at those heart strings) and finally Jamie 'Afro' Archer a musician from London who has failed so far to break into the music business big time.
