Yay! More time to improve the show
Hope it cements itself further as a good entertainment show
BBC seem to have invested more in the show than the Oz IMO
Bosses have opened a website where hopefuls can apply to attend a date at the auditions tour for the show’s fourth series, which will take place in June and July.
Those who impress producers at the open try-outs will be invited to take part in the Blind Auditions, where they’ll have the chance to perform for the four superstar coaches.
Solo acts or duos who are 16 years of age or over by Monday 23rd June 2014 can now submit registration forms at www.voiceukauditions.co.uk. Applicants under 18 years of age will require a parent or guardian to give their consent.

Just a case whether they improve the format and if he coaches return
Hey it's still better than The X Factor though
I wish I could agree. I don't find TV as entertaining as XF and is just as, if not more than, gimmicky
Pretty sure Kylie & Will.i.am will be doing more than 3 episodes of lives (on Aussie version) which already tell us that they're on higher salaries, plus more acts to coach meaning more days doing the blinds & battle rounds. The BBC budget is simply not good enough however with this seasons improved level of talent, ratings and editing (of blinds) things should get better!
I was meaning more talent wise
The show is better this year but they need to fix their issues with timing and the live shows atmosphere
I thought she handled it brilliantly when he first said it. Remember it's live TV with an audience of millions and she had to immediately think on her feet with someone probably screaming "APPOLOGISE" in her ear and all without showing any sign of panic or emotion
Anything after that would have been on the Auto Cue so not her words anyway
Yes it is a real swear word but that's not the point is it. Whether it is or isn't the reaction on live TV to someone saying before 9pm it is always the same. The presenter has to apologise there and then. If they don't they have to do it later.
