X Factor finalists are real heroes

Britain's armed forces heroes were moved to tears last night as they watched the X Factor finalists belt out our Help For Heroes charity single. The stars took to the stage during last night's live results show to sing Hero - a cover of Mariah Carey's smash hit.

And later judges Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole took time out to meet some of the forces most courageous men. However, the live show didn't go without a hitch... stars Ruth Lorenzo and Daniel Evans were left backstage when the studios moving doors failed to open on cue. Simon later told the audience: "Just to clear something up. The doors didn't open and Ruth and Dan got stuck. We'll discuss whether we do a repeat performance later."

The single is now available for download and will be in stores on Monday. Proceeds from the record will be divided equally between Help For Heroes - a charity that provides support for wounded servicemen and women, and the Poppy Appeal.
