I am really loving this Saturday night show. Its nearly finished its run but I really hope that they bring it back.
Its a fun, quirky little show.
On the surface it's a singing competition where the winner wins £50,000. Nothing unique there.
But the singers have to sing in front of the 100. A panel of judges who are involved in all kinds of singing (including Geri from the spice girls) and if they like the singer and performance, they put on a light and stand up and join in.
The singer that has the most number of people who stand up goes through to the final and the 2 runners up go to the sing off, where the same rules apply. Whoever gets the most number of people join in, goes through to the final.
There's a variety of singers and its not like 'the x factor' or 'the voice' where its treated like life or death. Its fun and it gives everyone a chance to shine.
There's no sob stories ("please put me through because my neighbours friends dogs brothers owners hamster has died") and because the variety of judges are widely different and some of the 100 like singers some of the others don't, theres no obvious winner and no favourites.
The singers support each other and they are having fun.
And host Rob Beckett's sarcastic/witty comments just make it even more brilliant.
I really love the show. Its perfect Saturday night entertainment and they should bring it back.
