Plasterer Matt Linnen had just performed Everybody's Free by Rozalla when the judge came to make her decision on whether to take him through as a finalist in the Overs category.

Nicole said: “I think you have a really great tone to your voice. I liked your song choice. I liked that you took the risk and came without the guitar.

Oh shut up! That was out of order!
Sniffing as though she was on the verge of tears, Nicole looked down to the floor to tease Matt.
Sighing, she continued: “I’m going to take you though to live shows.”
Shocked, Matt gasped: “Oh shut up! That was out of order! Oh my god.”
Nicole giggled and added: “If you’re willing to put in the work, I think you have a lot of potential and can grow and be really great on this show.”
Matt replied: “Wicked. I appreciate what you’re saying. I’m up for work.”
Host Dermot O’Leary then hugged the cheerful finalist and said: “That was mean, wasn’t it?”
Matt added: “That was horrible! I’m up for it man. I’m up for the challenge.”
The X Factor continues tomorrow on ITV at 7pm.
