Queue ear piercing screams from love-sick teenagers, as the biggest boyband in the world is set to take to the X Factor stage this weekend. One Direction will be making their return to the show that launched their careers back in 2010, when they finished third in the competition. (Matt Cardle won that year... whatever happened to him?)

Since then, they have gone on to have three number one albums, win a rake load of awards and turn the average teenage girl into a blubbering mess at the mere mention of their name. I hope they put all that in their little montage of their achievements before they perform.

One of the lads (let's call him Louis) has already been hanging around on set helping some of the contestants out too. N'aw, sure aren't they lovely lads altogether?

Ah they are, bless 'em.
