The search for ‘The Voice UK’ is finally underway!
Already a smash in the US (and its original home of Holland), the show has arrived on British shores by way of the BBC. Coaches this side of the pond are Jessie J, will.i.am, Danny O’ Donoghue, and the legendary Tom Jones.
Billed as the definitive talent-search, many are predicting it to serve as a true contender to The X Factor‘s strong hold.
Judge for yourself below with highlights from episode 1 / series 1 below…
This panel is GOT damn joke. Who the hell is that old guy? Jessie J has not been out long enough to be a coach. Will.i.Am? Seriously? The only person who this panel who has any kind of talent is Robin Thicke.
Nothing can top the US version.
@Christinasalmosthere
That is not Robin Thicke that is Danny from the band The Script. LOL
lol @christinasalmosthere you know nothing LOL fail play jessie hasnt been out long, ill give you that, but you cant say she doesnt have the vocie and that old guy is TOM JONES and he is legendary in the UK #fact and no thats not Robyn Thick. Its not trying to top the US version we dont even see it over here
“ChristinasAlmostThere” – You need to realise this is the UK version. That “old guy” has sold over 100 million records since he emerged in the 1960s. The fact that you think Robin Thicke is on this panel shows how much you know about the show.
the voice was sooo boring, I switched to britains got talent and it was funny. BORING AND VERY STAGED.
@Christinasalmosthere
are you serious?
Anybody who refers to Tom Jones as ‘old guy’ knows f*** all about music. Tom Jones is not just a singer from the UK. Man is WORLDWIDE! Damn he’s done his thing in the states as well! The man was the 60s!! Danny O’Donoghue has more talent in his left leg than Robin Thicke will ever have, please do not confuse the two! CHRISTINASALMOSTHERE Your comment is invalid, take a seat!
lol at the yanks getting angry. you mad because the UK has produced more talent on our tiny island than your massive country?
It was a good show, you seriously can’t judge on those three clips, Sam has posted. there was a reason why it was trending number 1 worldwide on twitter, the talent was great and the judges or what they are prefered to be called on The Voice, Coaches/mentors were funny and had great chemistry

chile the uk show looks so boring !
I thought the show was really good, Maybe not as good as the US version (YET) but they are on their 2nd season. The contestants could all sing and unlike when I (used to) watch X Factor when somebody was getting nobody buzzing for them i was willing them to get through and felt bad when they didn’t. The only bad thing was Will I AM, he was a really bad coach, not funny, weird, what he was saying about voices and stuff made no sense and when it did it had no relevance to the army of autotune skanks he works with and the fact he has to go on about BEP hits all the time was so annoying.
@ChristinasAlmostThere is obviously some loser posing as an XTina stan to start some BS stan war.
@Christinasalmostthere actually Jessie J worked 5 years on her album, and she writes all of her own music. The only reason Many people don’t think she has been out long iss because her album was only released last year.
