Coaches and presenters

Coaches for series 2 of The Voice UK

Upon the conclusion of the first series, it was reported that Jessie J was of threat to be axed from her position as a coach, after publicly criticising the programme’s production values. [4] Cheryl, Kylie Minogue, Adele, Rihanna and Kelly Rowland were notable names suggested by the media as potential replacements. [4] It was also suggested that Sir Tom Jones may also leave the series, admist speculation that Cliff Richard had been lined up to join the coaching line-up, which was later denied by the BBC. [5]

In November 2012, it was confirmed that will.i.am, Jessie J, Sir Tom Jones and Danny O'Donoghue would all be returning as coaches for the second series. [2] Additionally, it was confirmed that both Holly Willoughby and Reggie Yates would reprise their duties as presenters. [2]

Production

The show's Blind Auditions moved to dock10, MediaCityUK in Salford, Greater Manchester. [2] It was also confirmed that the live show format would be tweaked for this series, [6] which included the cutback from six live shows in the first series to only three live shows, and the pre-recorded results show had also been dropped, with the results given on the same night as the performances. [7] On 28 February 2013, four ten-second teaser trailers were posted to the show's official website and YouTube page. [8]

Teams

The teams were revealed during the 4 May 2013 episode of the blind auditions.

Blind auditions

The blind auditions began in Salford, Greater Manchester on 14 December 2012 at dock10, MediaCityUK after moving from BBC Television Centre in London. Each coach had the length of the artists' performance to decide if they wanted that artist on their team. Should two or more coaches have wanted the same artist, then the artist chose their coach. Once the coaches picked their team, they pitted them against each other in the battles. [9]

Battle rounds

The recording of the battle rounds took place on 9 and 10 February 2013 at The Fountain Studios and aired on 11, 12 and 25 May 2013.[ citation needed ] This year's battle rounds featured a new "steal" twist. After each battle round the losing artist then pitched to the other three coaches on why they should join their team. It was then up to the coaches (who have a limited amount of time) to press their red button to steal the artist. They could press their button as many times as they liked but were only allowed to steal one artist. If more than one coach wanted to steal the same artist then it was up to the artist to decide which team to join. The first battle rounds episode aired from 8.35pm until 9.50pm, the second aired on from 7.00pm until 8.00pm and the third ran for 130 minutes from 7.10pm until 9.20pm (There was no episode on 18 May due to the Eurovision Song Contest).

The battle round advisors were will.i.am working with Dante Santiago, Jessie J with Claude Kelly, Tom Jones with Cerys Matthews and Danny O'Donoghue with Dido.

Knockout rounds

The recording of the knockout rounds took place at The Fountain Studios on 21 February 2013 and aired on 1 and 2 June 2013.[ citation needed ] Before each knockout round, the coach chose one artist from their team to get a "fast pass" to the live shows, the remaining six artists from that team were then split up into two groups of three. At the end of each knockout round the coach then decided out of the three artists who won, and therefore made up their three artists to take to the live shows. Episode 1 aired from 8.30pm until 9.40pm, while episode 2 aired from 7.15pm until 8.30pm.

Live shows

The live performance shows were aired live from Pinewood Studios and ran for three consecutive weeks, beginning on 7 June 2013. The BBC decided to move the first live show to Friday 7 June to avoid a clash with the Britain's Got Talent final on Saturday 8 June, [12] and the live coverage of the 2013 Canadian Grand Prix on BBC One prevented alternative air dates over the weekend. However, the remaining two live shows still aired on 15 and 22 June 2013.

Jessie J performed her latest single "Wild" on the Final Live Show. [13] The first live show featured a medley of performances from the previous year's winner and finalists, Leanne Mitchell, Bo Bruce, Vince Kidd and Tyler James, [14] and a performance by guest Tom Odell. [15] Avril Lavigne and Beady Eye performed during the semi-final on 15 June. [16] [17] Michael Bublé and Dizzee Rascal featuring Robbie Williams performed on the final on 22 June 2013. [18] [19]
