The X Factor was the place where two of our favourite bands were born, but now Fountain Studios, where The X Factor is filmed, is closing and we’re reminiscing about all of the things that happened there.
Those studios were the place we fell in love with the five dorks that are the boys, now men, of One Direction, where we saw an amazing girlband named Little Mix win the year after.
So sad to hear Fountain Studios is closing. Real heartbeat of TV for so many for so long.

This is the place where Harry went down on one knee to give a shocked Louis a white rose, and where this lovely group hug happened.
We know we’re being dramatic, but it honestly feels like the end of an era, a part of our lives is over.
