So, by now, we’re assuming that everyone is as obsessed with The Voice as we are? What’s not to love? Let’s take this step-by-step before we get over-excited...

• The Coaches; when we first heard the line up, we’ll admit we were dubious. While there is clearly a niche for each coach (not judge, coach) we have been blown away. We love their banter, we love Danny’s wind-ups and who knew Will.I.Am was that funny but still able to make us blub in an instant… Ordinary People, anyone?? TV gold.

• The Concept; we started to get just slightly annoyed around week two when the judges weren’t turning round for some great voices, but then kicked themselves when they saw such a marketable product, ahem, person, in front of them. That’s the name of the game, folks… and we LOVE IT.

• The Presenters; Again, we were concerned. Holly Willoughby and Fearne Cotton – dream team. Reggie Yates and Fearne Cotton – old school. But Holly Willoughby and Reggie Yates? Well, it was only a matter of time, right? We love this pairing, and as it’s only their narration we hear together so they stay fresh, switching up the presenting roles and keeping us on our toes. We’re writing this before The Battles start so maybe we’ll see more of their gorgeous faces then…

• The Talent; Comparisons are always going to be drawn between The Voice and The X Factor, but what we prefer about The Voice is the lack of rubbish auditions, we always hated them on The X Factor. I want to be blown away, not burying my head in a pillow unable to watch a cringe worthy, wobbly audition and this where The Voice has nailed it – they searched the country and invited the talent to audition, so not just any Tom, Dick or Harry would be able to rock up and belt out Whitney if they wanted…

• The Hype; obviously we’re not the only ones obsessed with the Saturday night treat, as it is completely trumping Britain’s Got Talent in the ratings war, with The Voice boasting more than three million more viewers in the first week and continuing over the past few weeks. The Voice is taking over the UK and we are firmly on the bandwagon!

• The Battles; GENIUS! No really, just pure genius – what better way to separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak? The fact that it’s in an actual ring is also amazingly indulgent. Bravo, The Voice, Bravo!
