There were hundreds of people queueing from 5am outside the Great Western Hotel for the X Factor auditions in Newquay – this being Cornwall’s first ever chance to be auditioned in the county.
Most of the excited hopefuls were sent away, disappointed, but a small handful got through to the next round.
The X Factor mobile auditions were a great hit and it’s good that these new mobile audition rounds give people the chance to qualify without having to travel up country.
