Revision as of 16:02, 4 October 2016
Template:Infobox reality talent competition The X Factor is a British television music competition to find new singing talent. The thirteenth series began airing on ITV on 27 August 2016.[1] Dermot O'Leary returns to present the main show on ITV for the ninth time, after having quit the previous year. Simon Cowell is the only judge from the previous series to return; Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh all returned to judge the series. Osbourne, Scherzinger and Walsh replaced Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw, who all departed at the end of the twelfth series. Matt Edmondson and Rylan Clark-Neal replaced Rochelle Humes and Melvin Odoom for the thirteenth series of The Xtra Factor, with Roman Kemp making appearances on Sunday nights as digital presenter and social media reporter.
Judges and presenters
On 18 February 2016, series 12 judge Nick Grimshaw announced that he would not come back for another series on the judging panel.[2] On 5 April 2016, it was confirmed that Cheryl would not return as a judge.[3] Rita Ora confirmed she was leaving the judging panel on 10 May 2016.[4] On the same day, it was reported that former judges Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh may return to join Simon Cowell on the judging panel.[5] Walsh confirmed he had signed a contract on 15 May 2016.[6] The judging lineup was officially confirmed as Cowell, Walsh, Osbourne and Scherzinger on 1 June 2016.[7]
In March 2016, it was confirmed that Dermot O'Leary would return to present The X Factor on ITV for the ninth time, after having quit the previous year, and said he was "very flattered to be asked back". For series 12, O'Leary was replaced by Olly Murs and Caroline Flack, but the viewing numbers fell and O'Leary was asked back. Richard Holloway, boss of Thames, said he was "a much-loved part of The X Factor and one of the best presenters in the business", while Kevin Lygo, ITV's Director of TV, said he was "an important part of the ITV family".[8][9] On 27 June 2016, it was confirmed that Matt Edmondson will be the new host of The Xtra Factor replacing Rochelle Humes and Melvin Odoom.[10] On 1 July 2016, it was confirmed that Rylan Clark-Neal will co-host alongside Edmondson,[11] and that Capital FM DJ Roman Kemp would be a digital presenter and social media reporter.[12] Mel B joined the panel for one day of London auditions in lieu of Nicole Scherzinger.[13]
Selection process
Auditions
The minimum age to audition this year was 16. Contestants needed three or more 'yeses' from the four judges to progress to Bootcamp.[14]
Mobile auditions
In addition to the producers' auditions, the "Mobile Audition Tour" took place throughout the UK and Ireland. Auditions ran between 7 March and 30 April 2016, and visited Skegness, Sheffield, Aberdeen, Peterborough, Telford, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Sunderland, Nottingham, Middlesbrough, Leicester, Coventry, Ipswich, Scarborough, Chelmsford, Northampton, Southend-on-Sea, Hull, Milton Keynes, Essex, York, Isle of Man, Swindon, Portsmouth, Bognor Regis, Bristol, Blackpool, Preston, Weston-Super-Mare, Brighton, Newquay, Wigan, Truro, Hastings, Exeter, Margate, Yeovil and Maidstone.[15][unreliable source?]

Judges' auditions
Originally, the format for auditions was announced to return to that of series 10, with both room auditions and consequent arena auditions before bootcamp.[17] However, the arena auditions were scrapped at the end of June, towards the end of the filming of the room auditions.[18] The auditions started on 10 June in Leicester[19] and continued in Manchester on 13 June.[20] The next auditions took place on 17 June in London where Mel B was a guest judge in place of Scherzinger, while Scherzinger had other commitments.[21] Contestant Philip Hadlow did not progress to Bootcamp, but judged one audition in Walsh's place.[citation needed] Subsequent auditions were held in London on 19 June, with Scherzinger returning,[22] before moving to Edinburgh on 23 June[23] and Dublin on 1 July.[24][unreliable source?] Selected auditions were broadcast over seven episodes, between 27 August and 17 September 2016.
Notable auditionees this series included Rebekah Ryan, who had UK chart success in the 1990s as an independent artist and previously auditioned in series 4, reaching bootcamp,[citation needed] Saara Aalto, who was the runner-up on series 1 of The Voice of Finland,[citation needed] and actor Will Rush.[25]

Bootcamp
Bootcamp took place at Alexandra Palace from 6 to 8 July 2016.[26][27] It was broadcast in a single episode on 18 September 2016. The contestants all chose a song from a wall with sheets of paper attached. Each song appeared three times and the three acts who picked the same song would perform that song as a group. Immediately after each performance, the judges would either put the acts through or eliminate them immediately. 121 acts were successful in this part, and the judges then deliberated to cut the number of contestants down further, to decide who would reach the six-chair challenge.[28] At the end of Bootcamp, the judges discovered which categories they would mentor: Cowell was given the Girls, Scherzinger was given the Boys, Osbourne was given the Over 25s and Walsh was given the Groups.[29]
Six-chair challenge
The six-chair challenge took place from 9 to 12 July, at The SSE Arena, Wembley.[30] It was broadcast over two episodes on 24 and 25 September.[31][32][33][34] Scherzinger and Cowell chose their final 6 acts during Saturday's show, while Osbourne and Walsh picked their acts during Sunday's show.[35][36][37][38]
Ivy Grace Paredes had to withdraw from the competition due to visa issues and was replaced by Honey G.[39] Four more acts were chosen as wildcards to go to judges' houses. Walsh chose Samantha Lavery for Cowell, Cowell chose Ryan Lawrie for Scherzinger, Scherzinger chose Saara Aalto for Osbourne and Osbourne chose Yes Lad for Walsh.[40][unreliable source?]
Judges' houses
Filming for judges' houses took place in late August and early/mid September. The locations and guest judges were officially confirmed on 21 September 2016. Walsh was assisted in Ibiza by Fleur East and Alesha Dixon, Cowell went to Malibu with Mel B and Emma Bunton, Osbourne went to her Los Angeles home where she was joined by Robbie Williams, and Scherzinger went to Nice with Calvin Harris.[41]
The judges houses episodes will be broadcast on 1 and 2 October 2016.
