1. Have a personal issue

Whether it's a dead spouse (cue Daniel Evans) or a troubled past (Shayne Ward), in order to get the public voting in their droves you must ensure you have some kind of terrible personal issue to endure. And talk about it at every available opportunity. The more personal and the more heart-wrenchingly tragic the better. Remember, the people of Britain love an underdog.

    All you need is a smile the size of the chedder gorge, and also to be prepared to tickle uncle Simon's fancy.
