Derry, Ashley and Andrew all entered The X Factor as solo artists. They were put into a group at Bootcamp along with two other contestants, Marlon and Mitchell. However, at Judges’ Houses, Tulisa decided that Marlon and Mitchell weren’t right for the group and replaced them with Charlie, who originally entered the competition as part of the band, Chasing Keys. 

So up until now they have repeatedly failed at the final hurdle...look forward to more failure.
