Radio and TV presenter Matt Edmondson has been announced as the new host of The X Factor's sister show, The Xtra Factor.

The ITV show returns later this year and Edmonson commented 'I am unbelievably excited about joining The Xtra Factor this year, not least of all because on my first day Louis Walsh walked into my dressing room topless, unannounced. I regard this as the definition of "living the dream"'.
