X Factor profile: The MacDonald Brothers

HAILING from Alloway in Ayrshire, Craig, 20, and brother Brian, 19, have a celebrity claim to fame - they taught actor Hugh Grant how to do the Gay Gordons.

The duo were performing at a golfing event where they met the actor.

"Hugh was in Scotland for a golf tour and we performed there at the ceilidh. We had to teach everyone the dance steps. We got Hugh dancing the Gay Gordons. He looked kind of confused but by the end he got it."

The boys have been singing together for three years at weddings, clubs and events.

Who do you want to win? Let us know your thoughts.

I HAVE KNOWN THESE TWO BOYS FOR OVER 17 YEARS NOW AND THEY ARE FANTASTIC SINGERS AND MUSICIANS. I HAD THEM PLAY AT MY WEDDING LAST YEAR AND THEY WERE SUPERB, EVERYBODY COMMENTED ON HOW GOOD THEY WERE, THE BOYS ARE BOTH DOWN TO EARTH AND THEIR SMILES SEND A SHIVER DOWN MY SPINE. THEY ARE SUPERB. I WANT THEM TO GO ALL THE WAY AND WIN, WIN, WIN

I get chills when they sing. I think Brian is one of the most beautiful men I have ever seen.

They seem like really nice guys but I think they are still performing like wedding singers and not pop singers. However, they are getting better every week.

The McDonald Brothers are gifted natural singers. their harmony is spot on and they don't sing flat notes (like some of the other contestants). They produce their own sound without help from backing groups.

While I think Ben should win as he is a great singer, I like the MacDonald Brothers. They don't deserve to be panned every week by Simon.

i think the Macdonald Brothers really deserve to win they put their heart into every performance n dont get much back for it from the judges but their performance of 500 miles was superb in my oppinion better than the proclaimers version :-)

I honestly think they can win the X Factor now. Would be worth it to see Simon Cowell's face.
