I didn't find that bothering when I was hosting. I mean, it's bad to flop but at least you're the first to know it which kinda softens the blow. I don't really mind that Estelle flopped and it didn't ruin the fun of hosting for me knowing the results early, being able to have a say in both semis and even making the recaps made up for it. (though you could question whether the recap is a hosts duty now with Tom and James usually very willing to step in at any time)

 

I'd rather flop when I know it's coming. If I wasn't hosting I'd have been really disappointed with Estelle's flop - not that she would have qualified without pre-qualification.
