Memorable X Factor Moments
![]() |
X Factor has now stacked up over 100 episodes. At the rate it's going, it will probably be around for 1000 more. As a television programme, it has given us so many talking points over the years.
Remember hapless Robert Unwin? The chicken plucker who butchered Bee Gees classic Tragedy and Aqua's Barbie Girl? What about Robert King's unforgettable rendition of Are You Gonna Be My Girl? He wowed viewers and became a mini celebrity.
What about dairy farmer Justin? After he failed to impress the judges with his first audition, Louis Walsh told him to perform in drag. And that's what Justin did when he returned.
There have been tears, strops, shock exits, a water fight, not to mention bitching and backstabbing - and that was just the judges. We take a look back at some of X Factor's memorable moments in our gallery.
