i can't watch it on iplayer, it tells me it's not available in my area, waaah
my computery OH says it's possible to fiddle stuff so it thinks i'm in the uk or something but that all sounds a bit much effort and i have enough patience to wait a few hours for youtube clips 
for some reason the iplayer won't let me watch it but we can still watch the "official" xfactor channel thingy on youtube.
alternatively i.... *could* go and get a... life....?
