I stopped watching X Factor over 10 years ago as I got bored but are any ABers sad to hear its been axed?

It hasn't been on since December 2018 barring a celeb special.

Like many others I stopped watching years ago, when for me the sob stories became more important than the 'X' factor.

I shan't miss it, like many other's I haven't watched it ( or any other Simon Cowell ) tv shows for many years.

I couldn't care less if my life depended on it. Maybe they can get shot of BGT while they're at it.

Why Roy? I'm missing some in joke I guess?

[royfromaus]

Advocating to get rid of BGT is a hate crime.

[royfromaus]

Well, maybe not...but it should be.

[Mamyalynne]

You tell em Roy.

I have to confess to voting on the X Factor. Only because a young lass I know was a close friend of Jonathan Ansell of G4 and she asked me to....had a look...liked G4 so I humoured her and voted.

Loved that Susan Boyle found a platform for her voice.

Not a show I watched other than voting for G4 and watching Susan Boyle but it was popular for a time and did no harm.

Same with BGT. I watched Stavros Flatley for strange family reasons not to be disclosed here. Bit of fun at the time and again did no harm.

[Mozz71]

Roy- If it is, I'm guilty as charged. I can't stand those talent shows, and the presence of David Walliams makes it even more unwatchable.

gness I thought Stavros Flatley was hilarious on his first routine.
I voted once for Shayne Ward because I liked his singing and he was from Manchester like me.
He seemed to give up singing and take up acting but I've no idea what he's doing these days.
He was one that won and yet just like so many others, you don't hear from them now.

I did see Shayne Ward, Barsel. Nice voice but no idea what or where he is now.
