X Factor

The X Factor is back on our screens again soon, its return signifies the end of summer. The 'programme' finishes near Christmas which allows the producers to release the winning song on to the charts for the Xmas number one and make them enough money to buy a few extra range rovers for their Kensington manions.

There are many who dislike the arrival of this type of show and those who are critical because the primary objective all along is to promote the image and the interests of those on the panel and the big record company associated with the production.

I on the other hand enjoy watching it as it gives me and my Clapham mates an opportunity to divert our attention away from saving the world. It is probably not done for the right reasons but it is, never the less, entertaining and it has given the opportunity to singers who would not otherwise have been given the chance to exhibit their talent on television... Call me old fashioned but I don't think the principles behind the production of the programme should be taken too seriously?
