The X Factor will be beefed up with a new Sunday results show when the live stages are reached, ITV have confirmed.
From mid-autumn, the usual Saturday programme - showcasing hopefuls' performances in front of judges Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole, Louis Walsh and Dannii Minogue - will be joined by the new peak-time Sunday show, also featuring guest stars.
Both shows will be live, so viewers will have a greater opportunity to vote over weekends.
...Following the ITV1 shows, ITV2's The Xtra Factor will also be broadcast on both Saturday and Sunday nights during the live stages of the series.
The 2008 series of The X Factor was the most successful ever, watched by an average audience of 10.7 million viewers and a 43.9 per cent, across its run.
The X Factor returns to ITV1 at 7pm on Saturday, August 22, with The Xtra Factor from 8.30pm on ITV2.
