Outgoing X factor act, Daniel Evans has confirmed that he realised what the rest of us already knew…..he could never have won the show in a million years.

Daniel was (finally) voted off the show last night and said in a presss conference this morning:

"I couldn’t honestly picture myself winning the show, and obviously now it’s the case.

"Winning was never in my mind. I just dreamt of getting to the final. I was upsetting the odds every week by staying in. The public kept me there. I’m upset to be out. I was hoping to push on a little bit longer for us older people."
