Rough Copy, Jade Richards and John Adams are among the former X Factor contestants who have been seen auditioning for this year's series.
The judges started filming the second stage of auditions in front of arena audiences last week, and fans on the Digital Spy forums have already spotted some familiar faces among the series 10 contestants.
Boyband Rough Copy were one of the early favourites in last year's series, but were forced to pull out of the competition at the Judges' Houses stage due to visa issues.
Meanwhile, popular Scottish singer Jade Richards, who was a surprise departure from Judges' Houses in 2011 and a Boot Camp reject in 2012, is back for a third attempt to make the Live Shows.
Other returning singers from previous series include teacher John Adams, who appeared in 2011, and Joseph Whelan, whose axing at Boot Camp last year prompted a 200,000 strong Facebook campaign to get him back on the show.
