The X Factor: Battle of the Stars

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

This isn't as good as the normal public applying show, because they obviously didn't do auditions. But it is still a great "talent" show where we can see celebrities for what they really are, good or bad singers. The judges Simon Cowell, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh still continue to pick the best of the 16-24s, 25 and overs, and the groups. The first series has so far brought us Paul Daniels and Debbie McGee, Dr. Gillian McKeith, Michelle Marsh, James Hewitt and Rebecca Loos, Coronation Street's Nikki Sanderson, The Chefs (Jean-Christophe Novelli, Aldo Zilli, Paul Rankin, Ross Burden), Chris Moyles, rugby player Matt Stevens and first X Factor female and celebrity winner, EastEnders' Lucy Benjamin. Very good!
