The X Factor final is almost here and contestant Matt Terry has been gearing himself with a midweek gig in his home town of Bromley.

He arrived in his very own battle bus to start a packed day of TV and radio appearances, before performing to his local fans in the town centre.

Everyone absolutely loved it – especially his rendition of Grace’s You Don’t Own Me.

And the star himself made just as gushing a tribute to his warm welcome, thanking everyone for turning up to support him before this weekend’s big showdown.

And somehow, despite a busy schedule, he found time to make a shout-out to any mates with some time to kill…

That’s some efficient planning, Matt.
