Four of Diamonds brought the X factor to Birchwood to turn on the Christmas lights yesterday, Thursday.

The four piece, who were mentored by veteran judge Louis Walsh during the ITV series, were voted off the talent show earlier this month.

But girl band members Yasmin Broom, Caroline Alvares, Lauren Rammell and Sophia Saffarian have wasted no time filling up their schedule with gigs including yesterday's Christmas extravaganza.

The quartet, who are now looking forward to getting on the road for The X Factor Tour in 2017, braved the cold weather to perform live on stage. 

Following the performance the group turned on Birchwood Shopping Centre's Christmas lights alongside a line-up of famous faces including Warrington Wolves player and winger Tom Lineham and utility player Matty Blythe.

Duo Franklin Lake also took to the stage to perform for families.

Hosted by Pete Pennington, the Christmas event was free to attend and finished off with a firework display.
