LONDON - ITV is in talks with Simon Cowell over a new show called 'The X Factor', to be produced by his production company Simcow, that will fill the Saturday evening slot vacated by 'Pop Idol'.


Quote:
According to a report in Broadcast magazine, 'The X Factor' will see competitors audition to join one of three bands, to be selected and managed by three judges. Cowell will be one of the judges along with the Irish boyband manager Louis Walsh, and possibly the former Spice Girl Mel B.

ITV is reported to be giving the 'Pop Idol' format a rest this year, with Cowell reluctant to sign for another season as a judge, and hosts Ant and Dec wanting a break from the programme.
