Simon Cowell and ITV are locking horns as we speak about the all new X Factor Sunday night results show.

Simon wants the show to go out live on the Sunday night, while ITV want to save themselves £500,000 per week by pre-recording it after the main show on Saturday night.

A show insider told The Sun: “We can see it from both sides. Of course, it’s going to look better live. With the X Factor, anything can happen — that’s the beauty of the show.

“The rumour is now that it will either go live on Sundays or stay as a Saturday show.”
