Season 13 2020

We are ready for a new season 'X Factor' on TV 2, and we begin auditions in Copenhagen where lots of hopeful singing talents dream of being the next winner of 'X Factor'.

The judges Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Thomas Blachman have towering expectations and are looking for authenticity, strong singing voices and lots of musicality - and then just that extra thing that is needed to move on.

And for those who must already leave 'X Factor' after the first song, Sofie Linde is fortunately ready with a hug and loving words.

In Aarhus, the queue of hopeful participants is long, and Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Thomas Blachman await a hard working day with both ups and downs. The three judges are hard to impress after some good auditions in Copenhagen, and this is felt by many of the attendees.

Still, they managed to surprise the judging trio - and then a serious theme emerged that made Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Blachman go to the fight against bullying in primary school.

The hunt for next years winner of 'X factor' continues.

A bunch of expectant participants have defied rain and wind, and are now ready to give it all in front of the judges. In both Copenhagen and Aarhus awaits the judging trio many surprises.

One of the contestants especially goes straight to the heart of Ankerstjerne. Sofie Linde and all the waiting participants are ready with support. Thomac Blachman throws himself into a clairvoyant guessing game.

Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Thomas Blachman do not always agree on who deserves a yes for this year's auditions. Therefore, there is a challenging task ahead of the three judges when they must jointly select this year's participants for the '5 Chair Challenge'.

Can they agree on who is going to continue in the competition? They are only told which category to work with once they have agreed.

But first they have just the last auditions, they must listen to.

The three judges have unanimously selected all the participants for the '5 Chair Challenge', but the selected participants do not yet know which judge will decide their further fate in 'X Factor'.
Who should they impress to get one of the five sought after chairs? Oh Land is the first judge to pick the chairs and she is thrown out in some tough decisions.
She especially makes one choice she comes to regret, and must call a participant back on stage.

Thomas Blachman is the main judge of the second '5 Chair Challenge'.

He is confident of the task of cutting the field, but must admit along the way that several of the participants did not live up to his expectations and therefore have to leave the 'X Factor'.

Disappointments and surprises is waiting when the tables turn on who ends up in the five desired chairs

It's the groups 'turn to go on stage in the always dramatic' 5 Chair Challenge ', and it's Ankerstjerne's turn to hand out chairs. He looks forward to being blown back by the talented groups where he has some clear favorites.

But it doesn't go quite as he expected, and it frustrates Ankerstjerne. He therefore sees only one way out if he wants to have a chance against Oh Land and Blachman's categories who are teeming with talent.

Participants arrive at Thy, where this year's bootcamp is held. Now is their time to show what they have and if they go on to live shows.

The judges are ready to listen to their participants

Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Blachman have all heard their contestants at the bootcamp in Thy, and now they each have to decide who goes on to live shows.

For the first time, Blachman's young soloists, Oh Land's soloists over 23 and Ankerstjerne's groups will be singing live for Denmark in 'X Factor' 2020.

All the live participants have been on stage for the very first live show, and now it's all up to Denmark and the judges: Who will be on stage again next time?

With songs from the 1980s, the eight live participants will try to sing straight into the hearts of both viewers and the three judges Blachman, Oh Land and Ankerstjerne.

Denmark have spoken, and now eight live participants turn into seven. It's the deciding hour in 'X Factor'. Who has sung for the last time?

A song with a message. That's the theme of the third live show, with seven contestants fighting for a spot further in 'X Factor'.

Viewers have voted. Decision time has arrived. Who needs to sing again before a final exit, and who's on to next time?

X Factor is finally back!
This is something the living participants have been looking forward to, and they have spent the long break practicing 'songs from great music films'. Ankerstjerne, Oh Land and Thomas Blachman are also looking forward to continue their feud, and there will be something to fight for when the contestants again enter the big live stage. The danger zone is canceled, so now only the viewers' voices apply. Who will get enough votes to advance straight to the finals?

In the finale, the big guns are fired.

The four finalists sing duets with Danish artists, and then their judge has made a final and decisive song choice when the participants have to impress the viewers to vote for just them.

It's the last chance to show who deserves to win. Every vote counts when the finalists each go on stage twice.

The final three finalists perform with their first single in their own name - and the song will determine who wins 'X Factor 2020'
