More BBC choir wars

I received the following press release:
BBC ONE is launching a brand new Saturday night entertainment show
showcasing some of Britain’s favourite choirs.

Please check out the link www.bbc.co.uk/choirwars

We are inviting applications from all choirs countrywide and want to hear
from choirs of all musical genres; classical, gospel, barbershop, pop, a
cappella, folk and rock etc.

Choirs will need to get their entries into us as soon as possible to
avoid missing out on the competition deadline - Friday 4th April 2008 at
6pm.
Unfortunately, it appears that BBC plans to take some of the worst elements of the American "Clash of the Choirs" show instead of the other way around. All glitz, who cares about music?
