This year, the category assigned to each judge was left to the public vote, and the results have now been revealed, according to the Daily Star.

According to the publication, Cheryl will mentor the groups, Nick the boys, Rita the girls and Simon the Over-25s.

Simon, who mentored the same category last year took to Twitter to share his feelings on the matter, and it seems like he is feeling pretty positive

He did however tweet yesterday to say he would be interested to see how other judges would handle the group.

Although viewership is down on last year, it is shaping up to be a great season with some show-stopping moments already.
