Ben Haenow has won the X Factor.
The Shirley van driver scooped this year's talent show title after bagging more than half the public vote in the three-way final.
He triumphed over bookies' favourite Fleur East tonight after Andrea Faustini was eliminated on Saturday.
Haenow wowed judges with a pitch-perfect rendition of Michael Jackson's Man in the Mirror.
His victory means he is likely to score a Christmas number one with his cover of the One Republic song Something I Need.
