Tonight saw Ben Mills leave the X factor 2006. It was a travesty but I knew it would happen. Ben should have got through to the final but Ray has the teenage vote, add those to the sympathy votes he must have gotten for his tears and he was bound to last.

I hope Ben enjoys a fruitful career outside of the X factor, he deserved to be in the final.

Simon Cowell must be chuffed, he mentors both acts in the final….its lucky he doesn’t have the final say in who wins.
