Synopsis
Old skool talent show, knocked up by the Beeb to spoiler a similar ITV/Simon Cowell format supposedly in the works.
Live Saturday night variety show where Graham Norton asks eight acts each week to perform. Two acts face off against each other, three celebrity critics give their opinion, and then 101 Armchair Judges dotted around the country decide which one is best and goes through to the public vote. The winner of the public vote each evening wins £10,000.
There is also a section called Graham's Sideshow, featuring some of the more questionably talented individuals who have auditioned.
