X Factor to return for Comic Relief special - a look back at every North East contestant
Geordies have taken the winning title twice on the reality TV music competition.
It has been reported that The X Factor will return for a one-off special for Comic Relief this Friday, March 17. The return will be in the form of a comedic skit, with Dermot O’Leary and former X Factor contestants said to be taking part.
We have decided to take a look back at every North East based contestant who competed on The X Factor. This list only includes contestants who made it to the live shows.
