Is this the kind of shit I pay my license fee for?

I saw Curtis Stigers on GMTV this morning. This is too funny. And Lulu is a judge

What exactly is this?

Non singing celebrities team up with a professional singer and have to do duets. Get voted off like all the other TV shows.

I still don't see how Gaby Roslin can class as a non-singer. She may be primarily a TV presenter, but she played Mama Morton in Chicago at the West End last year.

Martin Fry is the non-singer in their duet.
