The new X Factor series was a successor to Idool which features contestants & jury members from both seasons.

In each season, each judge is allocated a category to mentor and chooses three acts to progress to the live shows.

The winner of season one was Udo Mechels from Nossegem and the runner up was The Cappaert Sisters (Annelies & Sarah Cappaert) from Tongeren.

Contestant Robin Danneels had to quit the show due to being hospitalized for his back pain.

Dirk De Smet in the "Over 25" category and mentored by Kris Wauters won the title.
