It's the final chance for anybody to impress the judges. The auditions start in Birmingham this week where Leona manages to make it through. Others manage to impress the judges too but not everybody is as lucky. Jamie is disappointed when he doesn't make it through. When the auditions return to London, Jemma manages to impress all the judges. Others to impress and make it through include 47 year old Deborah and Roxanne. Eaton Road manage to impress all the judges and make it through. Debbie isn't happy when Louis doesn't like her and they end throwing a glass of water over one another. With the auditions over the judges learn which section of the competition they will be mentoring this year. Simon is happy when he learns that he has the under 25's as is Sharon with over 25's. Louis is not happy though when he learns that he has the groups.

s03e30 - And the winner is...
Each X Factor judge is in charge of a different section of singers on the show. The judges do not know what section of the competition they will be in charge of until the audition process has finished. Each judge then has to pick four acts to take forward to the live section of the show. Each week the two acts with the lowest amount of public votes have to sing again in a final showdown after which the judges decide who should be eliminated. Once there are only five acts left remaining it becomes left to the public to decide who should go.
