ROUND 1: The Auditions
In the first round, each of the contestants must audition for the 3 judges. They either go through to the next round or go home . . .

ROUND 2: Boot Camp
In the second round of the contest the judges are each assigned a category to mentor. Each judge will then get to assemble a team of people to help turn their wannabes into stars! The contestants will then be put through a boot camp and afterwards only FIVE will remain in each group!

ROUND 3: Judges' Home Visits
Next, the remaining contestants will get to live the life of luxury with their mentors! But it won't be all fun and games as the mentors must whittle their teams down to just THREE each . . .

ROUND 4: Live Shows
The nine remaining contestants/groups will now get the chance to showdown live on ITV1. Week by week more contestants will be voted off the show and we will eventually find out who Britain thinks has got The X Factor!… Expand

Of course, as with all the best singers from this show, she never subsequently went on to record any particularly memorable music but her cover versions of songsThe format was the same but season 3 was somewhat saved by arguably the best talent The X-Factor has ever produced in Leona Lewis. Of course, as with all the best singers from this show, she never subsequently went on to record any particularly memorable music but her cover versions of songs such as I Will Always Love You and Over the Rainbow performed on the show as well as her cover of Run (by Snow Patrol) released afterwards are really very good.… Expand
