Roman Kemp to host Britain Get Singing

Roman Kemp will present 'Britain Get Singing'.

The 90-minute Christmas extravaganza will see a number of groups comprised of stars from TV’s biggest shows go head-to-head in a spectacular sing-off, and it will air on ITV and ITVX this festive season.

Katie Rawcliffe, ITV’s Head of Entertainment Commissioning, said: "Our viewers’ favourite famous faces are ready to pull out all the stops in a bid to impress the audience and our stellar panel of judges.

"'Britain Get Singing' is sure to add some much-needed Christmas magic to screens later this year."

The groups will aim to impress the studio audience and a Super Panel, who will be made up of The Voice UK’s will.i.am, Britain’s Got Talent’s Alesha Dixon and Starstruck’s Adam Lambert and Jason Manford.

The show is also supporting ITV’s mental health campaign Britain Get Talking.

Susie Braun, ITV’s Director of Social Purpose, said: "Since it launched in 2019, Britain Get Talking has seen over a hundred of the nation’s best-loved celebrities encouraging the nation to connect with each other.

"'Britain Get Singing' will see even more join that number as part of this Christmas treat with an important message: we can all nurture our mental wellbeing by getting together."

Richard Cowles, Managing Director of Lifted Entertainment, added: "'Britain Get Singing' will bring together the stars from your favourite TV shows to battle it out with some spectacular vocal performances in front of an audience and a panel of superstar judges.

"We’re pleased to be working with Britain Get Talking to bring this warm, humour-packed talent show to ITV’s Christmas schedule."
