From The Sun

ITV bosses are revamping 1990s Saturday night TV favourite Stars in Their Eyes in a desperate bid to fill the void left by The X Factor.

They signed off the new series last week after Simon Cowell said he was resting his talent show until next year.

Yay I used to really like it too! It was more fun than X Factor anyway.

Bad decision, I know there are catch up services but there should be room for people to watch both shows live on Saturday night rather than choosing.

I agree. Used to be annoyed when XF or BGT started and overlapped with Strictly as we liked both.
