no he's called stephen and we're not sure how it is being edited. Simon Cowell told him to come back when he had more experience but they did not give him a no, bez from the happy mondays was there when he went in July. Cheryl wasn't though. I guess the judges felt it would be unfair to say no considering his disability but I know he was disapointed.
actually i;m watching the extra factor cos i guess he could be on there, though everytime they show the clips at the end i think i see him in the red bomber jacket!
