He was placed in the bottom two after the rock-themed week, but the public vote saved him at the expense of Rachel Adedeji. He was in the bottom two again in week 6 but was saved when the vote went to deadlock and Jamie Archer was sent home. On 29 November, Daniels was eliminated from the competition, finishing in fifth place. On 7 December 2009, he performed a homecoming concert outside the St David's Centre in Cardiff, and toured with the X Factor live tour .

Rikki Loney (born 30 September 1987) is from Glasgow. He auditioned in 2008 but was rejected on day two of bootcamp, narrowly missing out on a spot at the Judges' Homes round. He re-auditioned in 2009 without telling his parents. Loney was in the bottom two in the second week along with Rachel Adedeji (17/18 October 2009) after he sang "Respect". The judges voted to eliminate him after his rendition of "Flying Without Wings", with only his mentor voting to save him. Walsh was absent but confirmed on the Xtra Factor that he would have eliminated him.
