After having set up his Judge's House in Ireland, Las Vegas, Bermuda and Barcelona in past editions of the X Factor, the Irish manager has chosen Ibiza for this year's boot camp section of the popular music competition.

X Factor UK has reached one of the shows most exciting chapter, the Judges' House. Celeb judges Nicole Scherzinger, Simon Cowell, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh have jetted off their contestants abroad to decide who will stay on for the live shows.

This year, Louis Walsh is in charge of the groups' category with the aid of British singer Alesha Dixon and former contestant Fleur East, who joined him at his lavish Ibizan villa a month ago when this part of the programme was filmed. There, 5AM, Skarl3t, Four of Diamonds, The Brooks, Ottavio & Bradley, Tom & Laura and Yes Lad will be fighting for a place in the competition.
