Last night 17-year-old Louisa Johnson became the youngest ever X Factor winner although it was pretty clear she was going to walk away with the title from the start, and that is reflected in this year's voting stats.
One act that we definitely didn't predict to do so well was Louisa's fellow finalists Reggie and Bollie, who seemed very obviously a novelty act that would do like all novelty acts did and leave after week four or so.
However, as you will see from the numbers below, the pair actually received more votes than winner Louisa in week four and week five, although Louisa managed to rightfully secure the top spot most weeks.
We can barely even remember who those contestants were during the first few weeks, Bupsi? Alien Uncovered?? Not a notion.

Did you have anything to do with Louisa's victory? Are you as flummoxed as we are as to how Reggine 'n' Bollie did so well?
