6. Kingsland Road
These loveable boys may have finished ninth place in 2013, but thankfully they've signed up for choir duty! The band, who are now a foursome after Jay Scott (middle) left the band, have been on tour around the UK and they’re currently recording their debut album, scheduled for release in January.

7. Stevi Ritchie
Stevi Ritchie is one of the stars of this series of X Factor, best known for his over-the-top performances. Simon Cowell has mentored him throughout, although it was Cheryl who brought him back as the Over 25’s wildcard. He was voted off the show after a sing-off against Andrea Faustini in week 7.

8. James Michael X Factor
He appeared in series 8 of the X Factor mentored by Gary Barlow and was never seen without his guitar, but sadly the gorgeous James lost out to Amelia Lily during the 2011 show meaning he was off our Saturday screens for good. Sob. Since leaving, he has been taking an interest in modeling and is keeping up his music career.

9. Tabby Callaghan X Factor
He finished third on the first series of The X Factor in 2004 and now Tabby is back singing in our Christmas choir! The soloist originally auditioned with group DZ5 but was told to re-audition on his own if he wanted success and was then mentored by Sharon Osbourne. After The X Factor, Callaghan participated in a fly-on-the-wall "rockumentary" titled ‘What Tabby Did Next’, which was shown on ITV in August 2005, coinciding with the release of his debut single "Number One”.
