Series chronology |
The Voice UK is a British television music competition to find new singing talent. The sixth series began airing on 7 January 2017, with Emma Willis hosting the main show, and Cel Spellman presenting online spin-off show The V Room. It is the first series to air on ITV since its move from BBC One. [1] Of the four coaches from the previous series, only will.i.am returned, which marks his sixth series as a coach, [2] [3] Former coach Sir Tom Jones also returned to the show after a series hiatus, replacing Paloma Faith for his fifth season, and Jennifer Hudson and Gavin Rossdale joined as new coaches on the show, replacing Boy George and Ricky Wilson. [4] Mo Adeniran won the competition, marking Jennifer Hudson's first and only win as a coach. Additionally, JHud became the first new coach to win on her first attempt, as well as, the first female coach to win a series of the show.
On 13 November 2015, Ricky Wilson announced that the fifth series would be his last as a coach. [5] However, on 24 March 2016, it was revealed that he could make a return to the show. [6] On 3 July 2016, coach will.i.am, who had his doubts about returning for his sixth series, confirmed that he will return for the new series. [3] On 5 July 2016, Boy George announced his departure from the show after just one series. [7] Former coach, Sir Tom Jones hinted that he could possibly return to the programme after the show had moved to ITV. [8] On 17 July 2016, another former coach, Jessie J, ruled herself out of returning to The Voice UK for the sixth series, after speculation of her returning to the show. [9] Wilson later confirmed that he would not be involved with the show for series 6 later in the month. [10] On 28 September, the coaching line-up was confirmed as will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Gavin Rossdale, with Jones also returning. [4] On her appointment, Hudson commented, "I couldn't be more excited to join the amazing panel of coaches on The Voice UK! The UK has always been so supportive of me since the beginning of my career so I’m really looking forward to sharing my point of view with the contestants and especially Team JHUD. Discovering new artists has always been important to me and the UK has no shortage of talent, so I can only imagine what this experience will be like for everyone involved. I can't wait to get going and start developing each individual’s own sound!" [11]
Emma Willis announced that she would return to present the show alone, without her co-host Marvin Humes' involvement. [2] On 8 August 2016, it was announced that a planned ITV2 unnamed spinoff show had been scrapped. [12] However, in October 2016, it was announced that Cel Spellman would be presenting an online spin-off show titled The V Room that would be available on-demand via ITV Hub and feature exclusive content across social media sites and the show's mobile app. [13]

There was a change to the blind auditions format for 2017; if all the coaches reject an auditionee they keep their back to the singer and will not say what they thought about their performance, as well as not being able to meet them. [14] The blind auditions began filming on 19 October 2016 at dock10, MediaCityUK in Salford. [14] [15]
Each coach has the length of the artist's performance to decide if they want that artist on their team. Should two or more coaches want the same artist, then the artist will choose their coach.

Charles Richard Wilson is an English musician and the frontman of five-piece rock band Kaiser Chiefs. Before the formation of the band, in 2003, Wilson was a member of the band Runston Parva, which consisted of members of Kaiser Chiefs. In September 2013, Wilson was confirmed as a coach on The Voice UK. He was the winning coach for both the fourth and fifth series of the show, being the first coach to win two years consecutively. Wilson left the show after three series, following the show's move to ITV.

The Voice UK is the British version of The Voice of Holland, a television talent series. The series was created by John de Mol and features four coaches looking for a talented new artist, with the intent that a potential auditionee could become a global superstar. The show's concept is simple; the auditionee walks on to the stage with the judges' backs turned to them, rendering looks, personalities, stage presence or dance routines irrelevant, and starts singing. If the judges like what they hear, they will turn around, indicating intent to coach them. If more than one coach turns round, power falls into the hands of the singer. Once all four teams are complete, the live shows begin and the singers sing songs chosen for them by the coaches.
