It's obviously no way a final thing/definitive answer, but the clips online at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00k96j4 have the Voice UK logo with the theme just singing "The Voice" without UK. So it's plausible that they'll do it like that.


I hope that's what they do. An interesting thing happened when I clicked on that link though first it took me to a revamped homepage for The Voice with its Twitter feed streaming. Then when I hit refresh it took me to the programme page. I think the new Voice homepage will be going live very soon.

I had their website on before, but all the links have been changed to that old BBC One programmes page. It was quite a good design, lots of content on there, including backstage blog from Reggie with video.

Was this the website you were thinking of... http://www.bbc.co.uk/thevoiceuk/

That's the page as it is now but the other link showed how that page was going to look. Twitter feed,a blog as aconnell said, and a new layout. Looked good.

There's something about the multi-platform approach The Voice is taking on Broadcast's website.

Just as cylon6 said, there was Reggie's blog, video clip page, page on the coaches and the other elements mentioned already.

Unfortunately, the Google cache didn't get any of it, but it can't be long until it launches. First show is Saturday 24th March. The episode part of the website said that Episode 1 was meeting the judges and the start of the blind auditions.

The theme could go along the lines of 'This is The Voice Of The UK'....something like that actually seems plausible. Since every international opening I've seen has the country in the titles....

That would scan well as a lyric. The Voice UK is fine but I'd just like it if they called it The Voice. Press launch today. and here they all are.

I can't see why it has to be called The Voice UK either. When The X Factor launched in the US they didn't call it The X Factor USA over there did they. I know they did on ITV2 but that was for our benefit.

Maybe the ratings would have been much better if they did, and had the titles plastered with star-spangled banners, bald eagles, and had Steve Jones dressed as Uncle Sam.
