What a night and what a weekend it has been!
The 10 acts, after yesterday night's hard-to-call performances, did all they could to win YOUR votes!
Like every week, our judges Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole, Dannii Minogue and after missing 3 shows, Louis Walsh was back once again!
As they do, they made the comments and also defended their acts.
After our 10 acts performed Big Band hits yersterday, the result was out tonight!
It came with a big shock as the 2 acts that received the least-amount of votes were Miss Frank and Danyl Johnson, so they had to perform in the Final Showdown!
After Miss Frank's performance of 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore' and Danyl's sing-off performance of 'A Little Help From My Friends,' it was down to the judges to decide.
With all the judges expressing disbelief of the result, Louis was first to reveal his decision
His decision was to defend his act so he decided to send home......DANYL.
Simon was next and he too, like Louis, decided to defend his act so he decided to send home......MISS FRANK.
Dannii, who saw all 3 of her acts through to next week, was next and she decided to send home......MISS FRANK.
The casting-vote was with Cheryl, who saw her 2 acts through as well. Her decision was to send home......DANYL.
Without a majority of votes, the result was in DEAD-LOCK, meaning that the act that got the least-votes was eliminated from the £1 million recording contract competition.
The act that got the least-amount of votes was......MISS FRANK.
So sadly, Miss Frank's X Factor journey has come to an end but wish them the best of luck for the future.
Want to watch it again? You can watch both The X Factor and The Xtra Factor online through ITV Player @ http://www.itv.com/itvplayer.
So another X Factor week comes to an end but another is on the way, which is 7 days away!
Good luck to our 9 remaining acts, the judges/mentors, the presenters and everyone of the X Factor team!

However, our past contestants have had such a journey!
JLS, who have been described as the 'best boyband the show has seen,' have been confirmed to perform at BOTH dates of the Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball, which will take place at the O2 Arena on 5th and 6th December!
Also, our winner Alexandra Burke has also been confirmed for the same show. She will perform on the 6th December date.

Another week of The X Factor has ended but Weekend 3 starts in 5 days!
The 11 acts performed did all they can to win YOUR votes after a Saturday-night full of mixed-emotions and anticipating performances!
Despite criticisms in the build-up of the performance, whether it was going to be pre-recorded or live, our very own Cheryl Cole gave an incredible performance of her new, solo single 'Fight For This Love', which has secured TOP spot in this week's Big Top 40 Chart (iTunes Chart) and is OUT NOW!!!!
Showing Cheryl support were none-other than her Girls Aloud' bandmates and husband and Chelsea footballer Ashley Cole!
Also, pop diva Whitney Houston, who mentored the acts throughout the 2nd-week, gave a speechless performance of her new single 'Million Dollar Bill.'
After an incredible opener from our 11 acts and from Cheryl and Whitney, the decision was finally out!
Landing in the bottom-two were Rachel and Rikki so sadly, one of them was to leave the competition.
After giving hard-to-call performances, it was down to the judges' to decide.
Dannii was first to decide and she decided to defend her act. Her decision was to send home.......RIKKI.
Cheryl was next to decide and she too, like Dannii, decided to defend her act so she decided to send home.......RACHEL.
Without Louis, the casting vote was in Simon's hand and after some time, he decided to send home.......RIKKI.
So Rikki's X Factor journey is over but Rachel's X Factor dream continues!
Everyone in the studio cheered on as a caller from Dublin turned out to be the missing judge/mentor Louis Walsh, who phoned-in on The Xtra Factor.
After being asked whom he would have saved, Louis said that he would have decided to keep Rachel on the show!
However, we say goodbye to Rikki but we wish you luck for the future!
Want to watch it again? You can watch both The X Factor and The Xtra Factor online NOW @ http://www.itv.com/itvplayer
Good luck to our 10 remaining acts, the judges/mentors, the presenters and everyone of the X Factor team!

Leona was at Waterstones Piccadilly today to sign copies of her new autobiography 'Dreams'.
Our 2006 X Factor winner was left in shock after she was punched by a male fan and the incident resulted in the book-signing ending early.
A statement was released on Leona's official website, saying: 'Leona was the victim of an unprovoked attack this afternoon at her book-signing. The police were called immediately and medical attention has been sought. Leona is understandably shaken and apologises to the fans she was unable to meet and complete signings'
A statement was also released on the Waterstones website, saying: 'There was an incident at our Leona Lewis signing this afternoon and the event was immediately-stopped. We are now doing everything we can to support the police in their enquiries. We take security at our book-signings extremely seriously and this is the first time anything of this nature has happened. We would like to thank Leona for her professionalism and we are extremely sad that this even was ruined for her, and her fans, many of whom queues from the early hours of the morning to meet her'.
Police say that a man has been arrested over this incident.
We know that Leona will be distraught by this. This is a real shock to all of us and we really hope she is OK. We love you, Leona.

After a night of performances from the 12 acts on the first LIVE show yesterday, the decision was finally out tonight!
The Results' Show opened with a message of condolences following the tragic death of Boyzone's Stephen Gately. As it was confirmed earlier, Louis did not appear on the show tonight.
The night of entertainment started with all 12 acts performing Black Eyed Peas' 'I Gotta Feeling', which really lifted the mood tonight!
Last year's winner Alexandra Burke got everybody gobsmacked as her LIVE performance of her new single 'Bad Boys' left the whole atmosphere in a hot feeling, with Simon describing it as 'absolutely incredible'
That wasn't all, it was also the time for some rectifying from last night's show, with Dannii making an on-air apology over her comments on last night's performance by Danyl, which caused some controversy.
It was the performance we were all waiting for, by the man who mentored our acts and the man we've all been talking about. The return of.......Robbie Williams!!!!!
Robbie performed a World Exclusive to The X Factor, with his new single 'Bodies' and he clearly wooed the audience. His performance really showed how much of a fantastic entertainer he is. Great to have seen him after a long-time away!
Later on, it was back-to-business as those all-important results were to be revealed.
Ending up in the bottom-two were Kandy Rain and Rachel, so they had to perform in the Final Showdon for the judges' vote.
After what was some passionate performances from both acts, it was decision time for the judges.
Since Louis was not on tonight's show, it was certain that if he was around, he would have wanted to keep his act so his vote to send home would have been.......RACHEL.
Without the presence of Louis, Dannii was to make her decision and remaining loyal to her act, she decided to send home.......KANDY RAIN.
Cheryl was next and after quite a long pause, she decided to send home.......KANDY RAIN.
Last up was Simon and after some thought, he decided to send home.......RACHEL.
Which meant that the result went to DEAD-LOCK, meaning that the act with the lowest amount of votes would be eliminated from the competition.
The act that got the least votes was.......KANDY RAIN.
So the X Factor journey ended for Kandy Rain, meaning that Rachel secured the final place for next week's show.
We wish Kandy Rain the best of luck in the future.
