''Grease Is the Word'' was the United Kingdom version of NBC's ''Grease: You're the One that I Want!''. It aired during 2007, and was produced by Syco TV (the production company of Simon Cowell). The winning couple, Susan McFadden & Danny Bayne, went on to star in a new West End production of ''Grease'' at the Piccadilly Theatre. The judges were actor and theatre producer David Ian, concert promoter and media personality David Gest, former popstar and television personality Sinitta, and choreographer and former ''The X Factor'' judge Brian Friedman. The main ITV show was presented by Zoë Ball, and Holly Willoughby presented ''Greased Lightnin'' on ITV2. ''Greased Lightnin'' shows extra unseen auditions, behind the scenes gossip and exclusive interviews with the judges and contestants. Cat Deeley was originally scheduled to present the show, but had to pull out at the last minute due to scheduling difficulties with her American shows. Simon Cowell was also supposed to be a judge on the show but could not as it was shown at the same time as ''American Idol'' where he was contracted to appear as a judge. He was still an executive producer. Unlike the NBC series, the ITV programme was not based (at least directly) on the ''How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?'' format, which is owned by the BBC. ==Format== After the traditional auditions, the final sixteen were paired up. From show four onwards each couple had to sing a duet, based on a theme. The two couples who gained the least votes, each week, had to sing again, this time a 'Grease' classic. The judges then eliminated one of those two couples. After three couples had been eliminated, the judges changed the couples, eliminating again one of the two lowest vote getting couples. The following two weeks, were the Danny and Sandy semi-finals, respectively, with the singers competing as soloists, with the judges eliminating the first and the viewers the second victim of the nights. The final consisted with the final two Dannys and Sandys, with the public voting which two should win the roles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Grease Is the Word」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
