The X Factor's live shows kick off for the tenth time this weekend (hasn't that decade flown by?), so we're reliving its all-time best moments from the last decade. Now we remember why we loved it so much...

5. Harry Styles and the 'pussygate' moment.
6. Gary disses Tulisa's 'fag ash' breath. Ouch.
