The X Factor is always an emotional, explosive roller-coaster of a show and this year's final was no different.

From the moment Dermot danced onto the Wembley stage with his 'Dermetts' it was a frenzy of performances, gushing judges and thousands of excited fans.

Amelia Lily, Marcus Collins and Little Mix dazzled on-stage and took advantage of the massive Wembley arena - Marcus even brought a plane with him!

It wasn't just the finalists who were having fun - JLS and One Direction joined together for the ultimate boy-band collaboration with a mash-up of their hits, 'What Makes you Beautiful' and 'You Make Me Wanna'. While former winner Leona Lewis performed an emotional cover of Johnny Cash hit 'Hurt'.

In a twist to the usual format, the mentors collaborated with their acts and though put in top-performances it was Amelia Lily and Kelly Rowland's 'River Deep, Mountain High' that stood-out.

In the end one act had to go and for the second time this year Dermot told Amelia Lily her X Factor dream was over.

We take a look back at the night and see if you can spot a familiar face...
