Series 1: Episode 2

Singing contest hosted by Rob Beckett which sees a range of talented singers take to the stage to perform in front of the 100 - a unique panel of music experts and performers from all over the UK. If any of the 100 like what they hear, they can stand up, join in and sing along. The greater the number that join in, the higher the act's score. At the end of the series, one act walks away with a cash prize of £50,000.\n\nHeading up the 100 is pop icon Geri Horner. As a member of the Spice Girls, the best-selling girl group of all time, Geri knows exactly what it takes to get a crowd joining in and singing along. \n\nEach week the acts, which include soloists and groups, amateurs to professionals, aim to make it into the top three. The winner is guaranteed a place in the final, with the acts in second and third each performing another song in a dramatic sing-off. The winner of the sing-off also goes through to the final.\n\nIn this second episode, there is something for everyone as a whole range of acts attempt to impress the 100. There are recent hits including Sam Smith's Stay With Me and Walk the Moon's Shut Up and Dance. Three very different duos take on three very different songs: the classic Sinatra standard That's Life, Clean Bandit's Rather Be, and an interpretation of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit. At the other end of the musical spectrum, there is a beautiful rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone, while another performer hopes for a fairy-tale ending with How Far I'll Go from the Disney movie Moana. The 100 know all the songs, but they have no idea who is performing them or how the acts have interpreted the songs.\n\nWhilst there is something for everyone, it's not just the songs that count, but the performances too, and the acts need to deliver on both fronts. Who will be able to get the 100 up on their feet and joining in? And who will be the next two acts to make it to the grand final, one step closer to winning £50,000?
