So here we are - X Factor final night.

Sitting comfortably? Check.

Pizza? Check.

Tipple of wine? Check.

Little Mix and Marcus Collins are the only contenders left to battle it out for the title of X Factor champion 2011, the record contract, the fame, the adulation, the relentless attention, a house the size of Simon's - you name it, they want it.

So, who's it going to be? Little Mix - the first girl band in the history of the show to get this far, or Marcus Collins, the beneficiary of Gary Barlow's stewardship, destined - if Louis has his way - to be this generation's Luther Vandross?

Okay, let's sit back, enjoy the display of 'musicianship' - decide who really has the X Factor, and join in with our live blog, which shall try its hardest to incorporate all your wittiest, most poignant and to-the-point tweets. Rock on!

this was the biggest fix ever.congrats to the Little mistakes (c'mon, didn't you hear their screwups?)

what we witnessed lastnight was a stagemanaged process. read my twitter comments with the #xfactor #xfactorfinal Little Mix & #infomercial.

sales&marketing 101, with a bit of psychology thrown in...simples.
