A new trailer for TV music talent show The X Factor has been unveiled, prior to the launch of the tenth series.
The trailer, filmed from the perspective of one of the contestant, reveals the return of the initial audition room, replacing the audience-based auditions that have taken precedence during recent seasons.
The video also confirms the final line-up of judge appearances by Gary Barlow, Louis Walsh and Nicole Sherzinger, whilst also welcoming back Sharon Osbourne to the judging panel.
The release of the new video comes one day after host Dermot O’Leary unwittingly may have confirmed the departure of Barlow once the season ends. When questioned about the possible return of Simon Cowell at One Direction’s This Is Us movie premiere last night, O’Leary said: “If Simon comes back, the dynamic would be very different. Gary wouldn’t be there – he’ll be leaving at the end of this year. Simon is a great judge so we’d welcome him back, but Gary’s been such a great head judge as well.”
Take a watch of the full clip below. Season 10 of The X Factor starts on 31st August.
