The auditions have arrived in Louie's Belfast where thousands have rocked up in the hopes of making it through to boot camp. The mayor welcomes the judges to the city and refers to Louis as Louise which is hilarious.

First up are a couple of strange looking 44 year old graveside singing twins. The sing Angel and they're so morbid that Sharon wants to book them for her funeral.

The talent has been elusive and the judges are regretting being there. Simon is hassling Louis that his town hasn't come to the party with the talent.

30 year old dance teacher Shelley, who used to be a topless dancer, sings Just a Little and dances along. She's a much better dancer than she is a singer but the judges are smitten and she's off to boot camp.

Girl group Aphrodisiac sing Do Your Thing and are fantastically through to boot camp.

14 year old Christian sings Can You Feel the Love Tonight and Mother, Father and Daughter group Trinity sing He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother as well as 16 year old Kimberly from Manchester who sings Ain't No Mountain High Enough. They're all through to boot camp.

Sam is a confident auditioner and has an amazing voice as he sings Handbags and Gladrags. The judges are smitten, particularly Dannii.

18 year old supermarket worker Mathew is confident that if can win the X Factor then he could be the next Robbie Williams. Simon isn't impressed with what I guess he views as arrogance. However, the boy can sing and proves it with a medley that includes I Want it That Way and Lean On Me. Louis wouldn't want to have to work with him in the next round because he thinks he's got too much confidence. Both Dannii and Simon put him through though. He's pretty stoked.

15 year old Dominic wants to have a #1 album and #1 single within the next 10 years. He sings Mack the Knife and impresses all the judges. He's one step closer to fulfilling that dream.

Finally tonight is Natasha Benjamin who is a single mum and has bought along her 7 year old daughter Jackie. She sings Toni Braxton's Un-Break My Heart. They give her a break and a place in the boot camp.
