The images show the boys joining Nicole Scherzinger and Ne-Yo in Dubai, the girls hanging out with Tulisa and Tinie Tempah in St Lucia, the groups chillaxing with Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne in Las Vegas and the over-28s with Gary Barlow and Cheryl Cole in exotic Northamptonshire.
And this year's series has already thrown up its first controversy, with viewers up in arms over the exclusion of Joseph Whelan - while serial reality TV star Rylan Clark made the cut.
A Facebook campaign has been started in support of Whelan, while Clark took to Twitter to tell his critics to "go and have a w**k".
