"Louis Walsh has claimed that he would have saved Rachel Adedeji if he had appeared on The X Factor tonight. Walsh decided not to appear on the show this weekend because of Stephen Gately&amp;#039;s funeral, but spoke to the contestants on the telephone on The Xtra Factor. &amp;quot;I never want to watch the show at home again,&amp;quot; he joked. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been shouting at the TV all night.&amp;quot; Walsh added that he agreed with tonight&amp;#039;s result and would have saved Rachel Adedeji, who survived the sing-off for the second week in a row tonight. Rikki Loney became the second person to be eliminated from the programme. &amp;quot;I would have saved Rachel as I don&amp;#039;t think we&amp;#039;ve seen the best of her yet,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m sorry about Rikki, and Rachel, pick yourself up. You can do it.&amp;quot; Walsh will return to The X Factor on Saturday&amp;#039;s show, at 8pm on ITV1. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
