Given how much Danyl Johnson clearly wanted to win The X Factor, he's being very gracious about falling at the semi-final hurdle. Talking to Pip and Fern just now on This Morning, the former school teacher said, "It's quite sad, but I'm so proud of them [the X Factor finalists]. They've worked really hard and they deserve it." Danyl also talked about all the negative press he'd received, saying speculatively, "They just wanted to pick on something. We weren't giving them what they wanted, so they picked on every little bit of news." Asked by Pip if he'd really had any run-ins with mentor Simon Cowell, Danyl laughed and said, "Would you argue with Simon Cowell? No one tells him what to do!" Danyl refused to comment much on his plans for the future, saying instead, "It's about the winner right now. I just want to see what happens." Danyl said he wants to hug Olly as the winner next Sunday, but added that Joe was "amazing" and Stacey a "dark horse". We think he might be right. Are you sad that Danyl didn't make it to the final?
