When I used to watch it, I always found it weird that there were multiple dull male winners and, James Arthur aside, they only ever had that winner's number one before fading away with maybe one other moderate hit, but the too-few female winners (up to and including Little Mix at least) all had multiple number ones.

Beat Again, Heart Skips A Beat and Pillowtalk aside, those male number 1s are varying degrees of dirge ew.
