The remaining acts left in the competition this week have to perform a Big Band song with a live orchestra. The judges give their verdicts on what they have heard and seen before the phone lines are opened for tonight's viewer vote. Rhydian again has a great week as does Beverly tonight.
Each X Factor judge is in charge of a different section of singers on the show. The judges do not know what section of the competition they will be in charge of until the audition process has finished. Each judge then has to pick four acts to take forward to the live section of the show. Each week the two acts with the lowest amount of public votes have to sing again in a final showdown after which the judges decide who should be eliminated. Once there are only five acts left remaining it becomes left to the public to decide who should go.
