When was the X Factor live final?
Traditionally the X Factor final has been in the last two weeks before Christmas.
This is so the winner can bag the coveted Christmas number one spot.
But this year the live finals were brought forwards, which meant it avoided a clash with rival show Strictly - and the winner gets more of a chance to get the Christmas number one.
The live finals began on Saturday December 2 at 7.05pm on ITV.
On Sunday December 3 at 7.20pm on ITV the last final aired, and Rak-Su beat out Grace Davies to be crowned this year's champions.
