McGuinness says: “This show is a belter! A talent show that’s only about the talent - with the best tribute acts from around the world singing their hearts out. You'll never have to fork out for expensive concert tickets again. You've got front row seats!"

The 60-minute special will celebrate the biggest names in pop music by bringing together the world’s top tribute artists for a glamorous night of performing and competing.

With music from the likes of Whitney Houston, George Michael, Little Mix, Ariane Grande and Bruno Mars - Even Better Than The Real Thing will bring together performances from tribute artists who are quite simply the very best in the game.

At the end of the show the live studio audience will vote for their favourite performer; the one act on the night that truly is even better than the real thing. A Christmas special is already planned.
