''So You Think You Can Dance'' was a televised dance competition and reality show that launched in the United Kingdom in January 2010 with a format based on an American show by the same name. The show was broadcast on BBC One. The presentation of the show is similar to that of the ''Pop Idol'' series of singing competitions. The show focuses not only on the dancers' talent, but also showcases new works by notable choreographers, crafted specifically for the dancers and the show. ==Program history== ''So You Think You Can Dance'' was created by Simon Fuller and Nigel Lythgoe, who also created the U.S. version of the show and is hosted by Cat Deeley, the host of the U.S. version since season 2.〔(Cat Deeley to host UK So You Think You Can Dance ) BBC Press Release, 7 October 2009]〕 In the initial televised audition phase of the show, contestants dance in front of the judges – Nigel Lythgoe, Louise Redknapp, Arlene Phillips and Sisco Gomez – in the hope of getting through to the "choreography camp" round. After a further selection process, the judges decide who they would like to perform during the live finals of the competition, during which the public vote for their favourite act following a weekly live performance by a celebrity performer.〔(Nigel Lythgoe on So You Think You Can Dance )〕〔(Louise Redknapp joins 'Dance' Panel )〕〔(BBC website: 'How So You Think You Can Dance Will Work' )〕 The show does not have a specific type of dance, contestants can do what dance style they choose. However, they will be asked to learn other dances throughout the competition. The first dancer to win the title of "Britain's Favourite Dancer" was Charlie Bruce, who won in 2010. It was initially announced that season two would have Alexandra Burke as a guest judge throughout the auditions and choreographer camp, to pull in more of the viewing audience.〔(X Factor winner Alexandra Burke debuts as a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance - 3am & Mirror Online )〕 However, it was later announced that all four judges from season one would return as the main judges. ''So You Think You Can Dance'' first premiered on 2 January 2010, beginning with one audition show, introducing the top 14 and others at audition. Five elimination rounds were followed by a final, with performances and results shown on the same night. The winner would receive a prize, and would earn the title of "Britain's Favourite Dancer". The winner received £100,000 cash and a trip to Hollywood, where the winner performed in the U.S. season finale. The show was axed by BBC One due to the second series' low ratings and buying the broadcasting rights for the UK version of ''The Voice''. 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「So You Think You Can Dance (UK TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
