So, this week was the Best Of British on X Factor, and with a ginormous catalogue of songs to choose from, did the contestants capture the vibe?

Some of our favourite acts were not so strong this week, Diana due to illness, Alexandra suffering because I prefer to see her dance. On the other hand, Rachel Hylton made a good comeback singing one of her songs from audition. Eoghan’s getting better each week too. Here’s how we ranked the contestants tonight:

1. Eoghan Quigg – Massive improvement from the boy this week. He’s getting stronger!
2. Alexandra Burke – I’d have preferred to see Alex do an upbeat pop number, but you can fault the vocals – great performance.
3. Rachel Hylton – Proving the haters wrong, Rachel resurrected her audition song and wowed the audience, but can she do the same next week?
4. JLS – Oh, a boyband doing a Beatles medley? How original. I agree with Simon and Dannii, that song choice flies in the face of their urban image.
5. Diana Vickers – A devastated Diana gave her weakest performance of the season so far, due to a combination of low self-confidence and still being unwell.
6. Ruth Lorenzo – Ruth gave a poor performance this week. I don’t care what the judges say. Her vocals were virtually mumbled. Do not mistake poor diction for emotion!
7. Daniel Evans – Universally the weakest act in this competition, but protected by a fierce cabal of older ladies voting to save him each week. Come on Daniel, time to bow out.

Anyway, that’s just our opinion. Share your own X Factor chart in the comments section!
