Referring to Cowell's acts, Walsh said: "He always gets the best ones. They've all been round the block a fair bit. They've all got more experience than mine."

Cowell then said: "Oh that's positive, thanks for taking part... They're not exactly going to have bags of confidence after this, are they?

"It's not a question of being spoiled for choice, it's how you prepare your contestants on the day. And I prepare my contestants better than the others."
