Charlotte Moore, Controller, BBC One says, “It’s been fantastic to see The Voice return in top form to kick start BBC One’s brilliant year so far, the new line-up has really connected with audiences and I look forward to it returning to the channel next year.”

Last week (March 22), it was reported that Kylie Minogue will leave The Voice after the current series in order to honour touring commitments, with her upcoming UK arena tour clashing with auditions for next year’s hopefuls. However, Minogue said she might be willing to return if the auditions were moved to fit her schedule.
