He added: "Weâd still like to pursue an iconic UK act on the show â someone like Noel Gallagher, Robbie Williams, Manic Street Preachers, Elton John or even Rod Stewart â but thatâs entirely up to Turki Alalshikh and Netflix because without them, none of this would be possible."
Potential musical acts include Noel Gallagher, Robbie Williams, Elton John, and Rod Stewart.
Dua Lipa's involvement is now improbable, although specific reasons for her withdrawal were not detailed.
