“The show isn’t directed to people like me, like rockers. It’s a pop competition. I expected to get a little bit of exposure and carry on with my band but as it happened I got through to the semi-final.”

People have speculated that both Ray and Leona may have picked up sympathy votes due to their tears on stage, ben joked that if he had shed a tear he may be still in the competition.

He added: “When I cry, I really cry. I can’t have a couple of tears and walk away. If I cry, that’s me gone, on the floor, tissues everywhere.”
