X Factor judge Simon Cowell is considering organising an enormous European-wide talent search which would put Eurovision to shame.
According to the Daily Record newspaper, the music industry kingpin is currently in talks to establish whether or not there is sufficient interest across Europe for such a contest.
If the continent does feel inspired to sing its socks off for Cowell Eurovision could find itself threatened, after 50 years of dominance, with competition as the world's premier international talent contest.
