Season 7

Emma Willis hosts the seventh series of the singing contest, which this year sees Olly Murs joining returning coaches Will.i.am, Tom Jones and Jennifer Hudson on the famous spinning chairs. The search for a star kicks off, as usual, with the first in a series of rounds of blind auditions, as the panel listen to each contestant with their backs turned, ensuring that they judge the performance on the strength of vocal ability alone. Those who succeed here will progress to the Battle and Knockout phases.

Spinning-chair singing contest, in which celebrity `coaches' seek out the nation's best vocal talent. But there is a simple twist - with the four coaches selecting their teams through `blind auditions', looks play no part in the selection process, meaning each singer is chosen on vocal ability alone.

The Blind Auditions continue in the third instalment of 'The Voice UK'. With spaces on their teams filling up, the competition is getting tougher as coaches will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Olly Murs and Sir Tom Jones continue their quest to find the nation's best vocal talent. The acts will be hoping to secure a place on the coaches' teams and earn their chance to win a recording contract with Polydor Records.

Coaches will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Tom Jones and Olly Murs return to the infamous red chairs for the fourth instalment of the Blind Auditions. Their quest is to find the next singing superstar, but can the auditioning acts give the performance of their lives, secure a chair turn and a coveted place on a coach’s team?

The Blind Auditions enter their fifth week, as Will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Olly Murs and Tom Jones reassemble to assess the singing skills of more would-be stars. Emma Willis ushers the contestants on-stage where, yet again, the coaches must decide whether they would like to back each performer based on the power of their voice, rather than their appearance. Only once a coach decides to support the singer are they permitted to turn their chair around, and any of the contestants chosen could be in with a chance of securing a recording contract with Polydor.

It’s the penultimate week of Blind Auditions, and coaches will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Tom Jones and Olly Murs are back in their red chairs looking for the nation’s best vocal talent. The acts will be hoping to secure a place on the coaches’s teams and earn their chance to win a recording contract with Polydor Records.
