Lost in Showbiz confesses it no longer really knows what to do as the good ship X Factor lists ever more perilously in the water. As regular readers will know, it has already tried to help, but to no avail. Following the publication of its suggestion that producers arm the judges with crude homemade weapons and get them to engage in a weekly physical fight on behalf of their acts, it sat by the phone, fully expecting a call filled with tearful gratitude - and perhaps the offer of a tidy cash sum - from a certain distressingly coiffured media mogul. Nothing. So, Lost in Showbiz huffily chooses to withdraw from the business of offering advice about how to save the show. It's not as if Simon Cowell is short of unsolicited suggestions. Lost in Showbiz liked the Daily Mirror's demand that Gary Barlow vote against his act Christopher Maloney; particularly the way it phrased the demand: "It's the non-Biblical equivalent of Judas and Jesus, but it must happen." It ignores the wailing of those who suggest that comparing voting a scouser off The X Factor to the betrayal of the son of God is perhaps pitching it a little high. Indeed it feels the comparison is quite apposite, given that, as it watched Christopher Maloney launch his devastating assault on Boy Meets Girl's Waiting for a Star to Fall a few weeks back, it found the words "Jesus Christ!" involuntarily springing from its lips with some considerable force. Or perhaps Cowell should turn to former paramour and judge Dannii Minogue, a woman Lost in Showbiz has had a vast, boggling admiration for ever since it learned that she had designed a studded snakeskin leather handbag at the behest of Kenco that featured a special detachable pouch in which you could carry instant coffee. Fresh from this triumph of blue-sky-thinking design - "it makes perfect sense to create a bag with special compartments for all your essentials, including coffee!" she offered - she has strongly implied that the solution to The X Factor's woes might lie in her own return to the series. This is not her idea, of course, but the will of the people. "I was just in the Middle East," she told Now! magazine, "and all the British expats were coming up to me and saying, 'Please go back'." Lost in Showbiz casts a quizzical frown in Minogue's direction and asks: are you 100% sure they were talking about The X Factor?
