The 2024 season of The Voice UK will air for free on ITV1, ITVX and STV in the UK on Saturday, August 31 at 8pm BST and the producers have promised a refresh – so in come three new judges – and a new AI assistant courtesy of will.i.am (who else?).

If you’re currently traveling outside of the UK, you’ll want to download a VPN to watch The Voice UK online from anywhere .

Out go Olly Murs and Marie-Anne (nobody was quite sure who she was anyway) and in come American country singer LeAnn Rimes and a couple of McFlys (Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones), with the last two sharing a double seat in the roles of duo coach – an arrangement that works well in versions of The Voice abroad.

Will.i.am will also be shaking things up by bringing artificial intelligence ( AI ) to the party in the form of "Felicia" but we can confirm that Sir Tom Jones will still be Sir Tom Jones as the hopefuls hope to impress the new line-up at the blind auditions. How will they get on? How will the new judges cope?

The Voice UK FAQ

What has Sir Tom Jones said about The Voice UK 2024?

"What amazes me is the brilliant voices that we discover every single year. This year we have a fresh bunch of singers and that’s what we are looking for. I look at The Voice being an amazing platform for our homegrown singers to showcase to the world."

What has will.i.am said about The Voice UK season 13?

"Every year someone realises they can fix themselves through the world of music, shed light and inspire other folks. When you realise that you can bring your own self joy and in the process you can bring joy to other people, providing them with an escape. Everyday a star is born, I know that sounds corny but it’s true."

Will Emma Wills still be hosting the show?

She will. This will be her 11th season as presenter.

What has Emma Willis said about the new coaches?

"We have three new coaches this year, LeAnn Rimes, Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones, what dynamics do they bring to the team? LeAnn is amazing. It blows me away that she has been in the business for 30 years. She started as a kid, so she has a wealth of knowledge and is brilliant as a coach. She also does The Voice Australia, so she knows exactly how it all works and excels in the chair. She is very competitively spirited, especially with Tom and Danny. They have a funny dynamic when they pitch against each other, so having her on board has been awesome! It’s hard for me to describe Tom and Danny because they are my mates, and I know exactly what they are like. They are full of fun and genuinely committed to coaching and encouraging everyone on their team Danny is used to being in the chair because he has done The Voice Kids, but for Tom, it was all new. Tom was nervous, which was really weird to see because he wears so many different hats and is brilliant at everything he does. You'd think he would just slide straight into it."
