What time is The X Factor final on and who are the 2018 finalists?

But who will walk away as the 2018 champion and earn the prized record deal – Dalton Harris, Anthony Russell or outsider Scarlett Lee?

What time is The X Factor 2018 final on ITV?

The X Factor comes to an end on Saturday, December 1.

It gets underway at 7.30pm on ITV, with Dermot O'Leary guiding fans through the two-hour final, with the winner announced shortly before 9.30pm.

Along with performances from the three finalists there will also be live performances from Take That, Ellie Goulding, George Ezra, Nile Rodgers, Anne-Marie and James Arthur.

Saturday's final airs at the same time as Strictly Come Dancing on BBC One, Life In The Snow on BBC Two and Britain's Most Historic Towns on Channel 5.

Which acts are in the X Factor final?

The following acts made it through to the grand final, after a dramatic semi-final which saw Acacia and Aaliyah booted off the competition.

Dalton Harris

Dalton is a 24-year-old from Jamaica who has enjoyed a taste of fame before.

The performer comes from a huge family and had 22 siblings.

At the age of 16, back in 2010, he won the Jamaican equivalent of X Factor named Digicel Rising Stars.

Afterward, the single he released, Single Pauper, made it to Number One in the Jamaican dancehall charts.

He released three albums before ending up on The X Factor.

His journey on the show began with him performing Elton John's Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word and admitting preparing to audition for the show for seven years.

Scarlett Lee

The 21-year-old from Surrey worked as a make-up artist prior to X Factor.

She had previously made it through the first round of X Factor auditions back in 2017 but made headlines with her style choices.

Scarlett viewers were overwhelmed by her fake tan, bright orange eyeshadow and deep purple lip liner.

The singer was eliminated during the Six Chair Challenge but sailed through the elimination rounds with her brand new look this year.

Now, Scarlett has made it all the way to the final and might just win the whole thing.

Anthony Russell

Anthony, 29, is a singer from Liverpool who tried his hand at The X Factor a decade ago but failed to make it through auditions.

The Liverpool native later auditioned again in 2017 and got three yeses.

However, he had to quit the show due to "personal reasons".

For the past 12 months, he has been mentored by new judge Louis Tomlinson.

Simon commented on this saying: “I knew that Louis had reached out to help him with his demons a long time ago.

“I think it says a lot about the kind of person Louis is; he doesn’t brag about it, he doesn’t talk about it, it’s a very personal thing for him."

This year he finally made it all the way to the finals after making it through the Six Chairs Challenge and singing Scars by James Bay at the Judges' Houses.

Who are The X Factor 2018 judges?

The X Factor 2018 judges are Simon Cowell, Louis Tomlinson, Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field.

Louis has already joked that his former One Direction bandmates could be joining him at the Judges' Houses.

Sharon Osbourne will step in to cover for Robbie during the live shows while he's on tour in South America.

The shake-up to the panel comes after Nicole Scherzinger was axed from the show and Louis Walsh left.

Cheryl was previously tipped to be the favourite to join the judging panel but she signed up for the show The Greatest Dancer instead.
