On a cold December night in 2011, hundreds of people queued in South Shields to get a glimpse of X Factor stars Little Mix.
Transcript
00:00The year was 2011, the month was December, and on a freezing cold night, these people queued for hours.
00:08Why? Because Little Mix were coming to South Shields the next morning, fresh from their X-Factor triumph.
00:16Fans waited patiently, outside HMV, hoping to get one of the 600 wristbands you needed to meet the girls.
00:26It was quite a night, and morning, and we want your memories of it all.
