True, but whichever one he really meant to have the 4, it wouldn't have effected the final results. Here are the results without his votes included.

Group Y
28 Bluetones - Slight Return
26 Manic Street Preachers - A Design For Life
38 Pulp - Common People
18 Supergrass - Alright

Since he gave the Manics a 1, they finish behind the Bluetones no matter what score they get. Supergrass finish dead last either way. Pulp and Bluetones advance.
