It was announced on 23 September 2015 that there will be a wildcard twist on the live show.

Timberlake, who has the Boys, will be picking the wildcard for Charyl's Groups; Martin will choose a boy for Timberlake; Jessie J will choose a Girl for Martin; and Cole will choose an Over 37s for Jessie J.
