Eoghan Quigg - X Factor 2008

Northern Irish lad Eoghan Quigg may have finished in third place in last night’s X Factor final, but he should take heart from the knowledge that he was the most popular contestant throughout the whole series.

At last night’s X Factor’s winner press conference a show boss revealed that over the whole series, Eoghan won six shows, Alexandra won two (including the final), JLS won one and Diana Vickers won one. So well done to Eog

During last night’s show, when the final two acts were announced the vote percentages were as follow:

Alexandra: 44.02%
JLS: 30.65%
Eoghan: 25.33%

Then after JLS and Alex sang their versions of the winners single the lines were closed and the final tally came out as:

Alexandra: 58.34%
JLS: 41.66%
