X FACTOR judge Louis Walsh launched a biting attack on Bruce Forsyth and Strictly Come Dancing, saying they appeal only to grannies.
The boyband manager was scathing about the rival Saturday night show, saying: "How old is Bruce Forsyth, 78?
"And he's wearing a rug. He's got the perfect face for radio. Strictly Come Dancing is just for grannies. It's got a granny presenting it.
"It's for old folks' homes and hospitals.
"Anyone younger tunes in to the X Factor."
Louis also boasted in Now magazine of how ITVs X Factor is winning the ratings war - and that he expects it to stay No1.
He said: "People know X Factor is for real. There is nothing the BBC could put up against us that would win more viewers."
Louis added he was thinking of asking for a pay rise next year due to the show's success.
But viewing figures for last Saturday show Brucie and Co beat the X Factor by a million.
