Bad singers wanted for a new BBC TV show - here’s how to apply

If you’ve always dreamed of being on the stage but don’t have much talent, then now could be your chance. The BBC is looking for bad singers for a new TV show.


The show, named I Can See Your Voice, is looking for tone-deaf singers in the UK, who could even win a cash prize for being tuneless.

There will be eight episodes of the programme in total, with each episode seeing a team of two players trying to win a cash prize by guessing who can and cannot sing from a group of mystery singers standing in front of them - without them having to sing.

The mystery singers will take part in lip-sync challenges and will offer entertaining hidden clues to the panel of celebrity experts. The panel will help the players narrow down the group until there’s only one singer left, who will then perform a duet with a guest singer in order to reveal if they can or can’t sing.
If the players pick a good singer, they will take home the prize. However, if a bad singer is revealed, it is then them who will win the money instead.

The BBC application page for the show reads, “Are you a BAD SINGER? Can’t sing to save your life? But think you have what it takes to convince people you are actually a brilliant singer for a chance to win a cash prize? Then we want to hear from you!


Great count me in I’ve won the money something I could possible win

Mighty Ducks: Game Changers

I am a huge of the Movies and when I heard of them doing a Series, I couldn't wait because I hoped that it'll follow on with the Cobra Kai formula of nostalgia.

Then I saw the advert and thought, what is this, The Mighty Ducks are the bad guys but I gave it a go because Emilio Estevez is in it and Gordon Bombay is one of my favorite characters.

In a way, this was a strange show, I couldn't wait each Friday for each new episode but whilst there were nods to the original Movies, it didn't click, which was a real shame.

Episode 6 was my favorite because some of the original cast appeared and that was what we were waiting for.

Hopefully if there is a Season 2, they fix the issues and give the fans what we want.

Exactly, why don’t they concentrate on making good quality tv like they use instead of reality shite, and terrible game shows,

With shows like
Fawlty towers classed as the best comedy tv series of all time,
Monty python
Line of duty,
Only fools and horses
Inside no 9
Original doctor who
Informer
Red dwarf
Killing eve
Peaky blinders

The list of shows shows that they are capable of producing quality tv.

Speaking of quality modern telly, I'm quite taken with this The Terror at the moment.
I'd also semi recommend this Mythic Quest, if only for F Murray Abraham's performance

As some watch things like The Voice, X-Factor, Britain's Got Talent to see the bad as well as the good, there will be loads of people who will watch the bad singer show, so it's not a surprise that the series has been commissioned.

I've seen some great stuff on the BBC recently: Line of Duty, I May Destroy You, Inside No. 9, This Time with Alan Partridge, Have I Got News for You, Ghosts, Dracula, Once Upon a Time in Iraq, Belsen: Our Story, The Salisbury Poisonings, Louis Theroux Meets Joe Exotic, and Miss America.

I have a lot of highly rated series on iPlayer added to my list: In My Skin, Us, Industry, Devs, This Country, Small Axe, The Pact, and Normal People.

Is Mayday on I-Player, Nos. I have that on dvd. It was a fun murder mystery about the murder of the May Queen at a local Pagan festival. Good cast too - Leslie Manville, Aiden Gillen, Peter Firth, Sophie Okonedo...
