Nick Grimshaw’s six chair challenge with the Boys had plenty of drama tonight.
Those singing include Ben Clarke, Brodie Kelly, Ché Chesterman, Danny Sharples, Jamie Eldridge, Jordan Luke Gage and Josh Daniel.
Hoping to turn things around was Tom Bleasby who sang I Look To You. Rita and Simon and a booing audience changed Nick’s mind.
Want to be on The X Factor, but without Simon Cowell grimacing at you?
Facing the music on this evening’s episode is girl group Monday Amie.
But with more Groups to perform next week, these acts are still far from safe. In fact, Simon was the first judge on his feet, after the judges spent the entire performance whispering to each other about how fantastic these girls are.

“Don’t come on and insult this show and insult my producers”. Then came this version of Shakespeare’s Sister’s “Stay”, which certainly shut the haters up. “We’re not ready to go home yet – we can taste it, and we have got so much to give”, the girls said prior to their performance. And dare we say it, we prefer it to the original. Even so Nick took a chance and gave him a chair.
