Bearing in mind that ALW and his endearing inability to hide his emotions (both good and bad) are by far the most entertaining element of the show, it’s hard to fathom recent reports claiming that the US spin-off - You’re the One That We Want - might not feature the maestro.

Lets hope his discussions with NBC later this month go well and he can join his buddy David Ian on the other side of the pond.
