Dane Longden - Xmas Factor winner 2013
Date published: 24 December 2013
Dane Longden became the first male winner of the competition when he was crowned Xmas Factor 2013 winner.
Dane wins a prize of being picked up in a limousine from the Wheatsheaf Centre and taken on a 'cruise' with his friends before arriving at Gracie Land Recording Studio to record his first CD.
After a tense first half, the judges put through Dane, Emma Middlebrook and Leneta Hey to perform their Christmas song in a final bid to win the title.
MK1, otherwise known as Charlie & Sim, from last year’s X Factor, were swaying along to the Christmas ballads and a unanimous decision was made to crown Dane as this year’s Xmas Factor winner.
Each of the acts won £50 to spend in the Wheatsheaf Centre.
