The X Factor 2017 episode 7 auditions preview

The X Factor 2017 auditions continue tonight as even more hopefuls step before the judges to sing their heart out in the hope of making it through to bootcamp.

Tonight’s episode sees the series back at Thorpe Park Resort and we’re hoping it’ll tone down the joke acts. Despite opening strong with its first two episodes, The X Factor returned to novelty and joke auditions in the hope of boosting its ratings over the past fortnight.

We think there’s been enough genuine talent for the show not to have to resort to novelty acts again so fingers crossed the focus stays in the right place.

Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh will preside over the auditions as always with Dermot O’Leary on hand to offer support and comfort to the hopefuls and their families.

Preview the acts hoping to make their mark on the judges tonight, in our gallery below:
