X Factor AXED after 17 years
X Factor was first aired in 2004 with judges Simon Cowell, Sharon Osborne and Louis WalshX Factor was last aired in 2018 with Robbie Williams, Ayda Field, Simon Cowell and Louis Tomlinson on the judging panelBut sources close to the 61-year-old music mogul believe The X Factor is “unlikely” to return to UK screens.A show insider said of X Factor: “Globally, it is still a phenomenon and rakes in millions every year. But in the UK, there is no question it has become slightly stale.
“It is still on the back-burner and there’s the option to return it in 2023, with auditions next summer, but a lot will ride on his new format Walk The Line.”Simon’s new gameshow is a six-part series expected to fill a prime-time Saturday night slot. An ITV source added: “There is a lot of money at stake and the concept is fantastic — it’s a bit like a musical version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
