Louis usually chooses Ireland for his Judges’ Houses but this year he will be joined by the Boys in Istanbul. They will be up against it while they try to fight for their place in the live shows in front of Louis and singer Mika, who is best known for his single Grace Kelly back in 2007. Vying for a spot in the live shows are Aidan Martin, Jack Mason, Leon Mallet, Lloyd Macey, Spencer Sutherland and Sam Black - who was originally knocked out earlier in the series at Bootcamp. Liverpudlian Anthony Russell was forced to withdrawn from the series after he admitted to taking drugs.
