X Factor Tie Watch - Live Show 1

The Ties Planet team's eyes were wide open last night as the first live show of this year's X Factor competition took place. As usual we were keen to see which smart chaps (or indeed chapesses) wore ties.

It was a Robbie Williams influenced night with Olly Murs and John & Edward making it into our good books. 25 year old singer Murs wore a square-end skinny tie for his performance of She's The One.

Controversial duo John & Edward pleased us also (or at least one of them did) by sporting a fetching skinny tie for their version of Rock DJ. Will they survive tonight's first public vote though?

Host Dermot O'Leary as usual looked smart in fitted suit and skinny tie... and to top off an excellent evening's viewing, the star of the show, Simon Cowell wore a sharp wide black silk tie.

The Lucky Tie

Emmerdale watchers will have tonight seen Terry Woods ask, 'Have you seen my lucky tie anywhere?' Woods went on to claim he couldn't see the bank manager without it.

Putting Terry's clear bad taste in ties aside, we were delighted to see the trust he had put in the humble necktie. Woods was hoping to convince his bank to lend him money to purchase Emmerdale's finest B&B.
