SIMON COWELL 'PLANNING 2022 COMEBACK WITH THE X FACTOR'

Reports: Simon Cowell is planning a 'huge TV comeback for 2022', with the return of Britain's Got Talent and The X Factor set to return after a three year break. Simon is also reportedly a brand-new series in partnership with a streaming platform.

An insider told The Sun On Sunday: "Simon wants to keep everyone on his sets safe and let 2021 play out. But he feels, after a much-needed break, X Factor 2022 will be good to go, with some changes...

"He’s asked his team to examine what TV formats could be ready by next year and feels channels and streaming platforms are in need of new ideas and there are opportunities to shape the future of TV."
