ITV announces a new three-year deal for Britain’s Got Talent and The X Factor, which will see two of the UK’s biggest television formats continuing on Britain’s most watched commercial channel until at least 2019
The agreement, with Syco Entertainment and FremantleMedia UK, extends ITV’s successful, long-standing relationship with Simon Cowell for a further three years. The new partnership will commence with Britain’s Got Talent in Spring 2017 followed by The X Factor in the Autumn.
Kevin Lygo, ITV’s Director of Television, said:
“Britain’s Got Talent and The X Factor are both big, brilliant, wonderful shows and I am delighted that they will continue to take up their place as an important part of our schedule for the next three years. They are defining shows for us, ones that we are very proud to have as part of our entertainment slate, and they continue year after year, for months at a time, to be amongst the most popular and hugely entertaining formats on television.”
