THE show which has got the whole country talking comes to a spectacular climax this weekend - but who will win the X Factor?
Local lad Olly Murs faces hot favourite Joe McElderry and popular Essex girl Stacey Solomon in his bid to take the title and with it an almost certain spot atop the Christmas single chart.
Whatever happens, you can have your say on this site and enjoy the views of our talented trio of bloggers, all of whom will be posting this weekend.
Music blogger Jon Barnes is backing Olly, while TV critic Elliot Furniss threw his weight behind Jedward and, still smarting, loathes our Essex hope.
Meanwhile, Evening Star editor Nigel Pickover doesn't mind who wins - as long as it's not Joe or Stacey.
