Gary makes an annoucement...

With all the grandeur and excitement of today’s live show, it was the perfect time for our lovely Gary Barlow to make an announcement of his own – this will be his last series on the show. Sob.

During Rough Copy’s performance – the closing song of the night - Gary told the group: "I've been here for three years and I'm so glad that for my last year on the show I get to mentor you guys".

Later, Gary confirmed: “I've had an amazing time on X Factor these past three years. A show like this needs to stay fresh and exciting so it's a great opportunity for someone to come in and take the show past its incredible ten year anniversary.

“Next year is looking to be a very busy year for me and The X Factor is a full time job so it felt like the right time to hand over the baton. I've loved being a part of the show and have met and worked with some fantastic people but most importantly, more than ever, I want to go out with the winning act this year. Come on the groups!”

Although we’re sad Gary’s leaving, we know we’ll be seeing plenty from him as he embarks on his solo tour with his up-coming album Since I Saw You Last. In the meantime, if we know Gary (and we think we do), this has probably made him even more determined to win the competition. We have a feeling we’re in for some serious magic from the Groups…

Let's hope Sharon and Louis don't leave too or they may as well axe the show tbh, no 2011 style revamp plz

Simon - Nicole - Sharon - Louis will do next year

[Smithy]

[Black Dagger]

Robbie or Simon then next year.

Probably both if Louis goes

Then somebody basic like Rita Ora replaces Sharon.

[Brother Leon]

Pretty sure all 4 of them will be off. Nicole only one hat may stay, but even then it is unlikely.

[Samm]

Next year - Simon - Sharron -Nicole - Louie

[Marc]

No Louis. No Gary.

Who the heck will step up.. Robbie?.. Dear lord no

The only one staying is Nicole. Sharon and Louis have both said they're leaving after this series.
