Music mogul Simon Cowell has confirmed that he plans to return to the UK 'X Factor' in the future and has been thinking about it lately. 

The superstar is currently on the panel of 'X Factor USA' and told London's Metro newspaper that he wants to come back to the original show because he misses it:

"I will (return) at some point. I still miss that, I mean that show is my baby and that last year we did which was the One Direction year was the most fun I've had - it was fantastic."

"When I look back at the clips now and remind myself about it, it was a really cool year that."

Cowell added that he has fixed his relationship with former judge Cheryl Cole and also hopes to get 'Shine Ya Light' beauty Rita Ora involved: "Cheryl and I patched up our differences a long time ago. I saw her recently, we speak a lot on the phone and text each other, and I think both of us would like the idea of working together again."

"She was a great judge. I mean, apart from being cute she's a great judge and she knows what she's talking about and, oh my God, she wears her heart on her sleeve! I met with Rita at my house recently and I was really, really impressed with her and you just know she's a future star."
