  The X Factor (television series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The X Factor is billed as the UK's biggest ever talent search, as it was the first such contest to have no upper age limit (although the minimum limit is 16), and to allow both solo singers and groups to compete.
Louis was alleged to have told Chenai in the second live show of the second series that she was safe, because "Sharon owed him one" from the previous show.
Later in the same series Louis was heavily criticised for casting the deciding vote to keep Irish group The Conway Sisters in the show at the expense of the popular Maria Lawson, especially after it was revealed that he had known the Conways personally prior to the show.

 Encyclopedia of the Unusual and Unexplained - Ghosts and Phantoms
While individuals around the world may argue politics, religion, and philosophy from the perspective of their own cultural biases, if there is a single unifying factor in the arena of the unknown and the unexplained, it is the manifestation of ghostly entities.
On October 17, 1998, Prince Edward of England (1964–) and the film crew for the television series "Crown and Country" saw the three-masted ship off the Isle of Wight and managed to capture its image on film.
Although ghosts and phantoms are frequent subjects for television documentaries, there have been few series that have treated the spirit world in a serious manner.

 The Official Gillian Anderson Website - Archive - Transcripts
Having spent nine years as a lead character in one of the most phenomenally successful television series in recent memory, not forgetting her 1996 accolade of The World’s Sexiest Women in a British men’s magazine, the media’s hunger for her publicity is hardly surprising.
Indeed, before her involvement with the series, Anderson’s acting career was very much in its infancy, and thoughts of a career in marine biology were still a distant possibility.
Since the conclusion of The X Files, Anderson has relished the opportunity to explore her "desire to be creative." This journey has currently led her to the West End stage, serving as both a geographical and professional homecoming, as it is theatre through which she initially earned a living as an actress.
