X Factor hopes kept alive for Irish contenders as all three go through

IRELAND had the X Factor last night as the three Irish participants in the television talent competition all made it through to the next round.

Dublin supermarket check-out operator Mary Byrne continued her solo journey after the 50-year-old’s rendition of I Who Have Nothing put her through to the next round.

She has been warned by the judges she needs to perform a more modern song than the numbers she has belted out in the competition so far.
