Singer Dannii Minogue might return to the 'X Factor' with Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole next year.
ITV bosses reportedly wanted to revive the judges' panel of 2008-10 when the show was most successful, reported Daily Mirror.
"Dannii is still very popular in the UK and many people at ITV feel the return of Sharon Osbourne this year was positive and would like to do the same with Dannii.
"The show was most successful a number of years ago so they need some of that success and spark, perhaps mixed with one or two new faces from the music industry today. Dannii and Simon together could be very intriguing and exciting on screen, there is a lot of history there," a source said.
Minogue had earlier said that she turned down an option to return to the show in 2012 to look after her son Ethan.
"Never say never. I wouldn't rule it out. He is amazing and I learnt so much from him on that show. It put me in a really good place for working on Australia's Got Talent, working on this show, and it changed my whole career around.
"I had never thought I want to be a judge, it isn't something you can plan to do it," she had said.
