The first live show of the series arrives, as Paloma Faith, Boy George, Will.i.am and Ricky Wilson bring their teams to the quarter finals. Naturally, with the contest reaching its conclusion, the stakes have never been higher for the eight remaining contestants, who will need to produce barnstorming performances in order to secure a place in the semi-finals. After weeks of assessing the would-be stars from the comfort of their sofas, viewers at home now receive their first chance to voice their opinions via a public vote that will decide which act will be progressing to the contest’s penultimate round.
