Viewers of BBC One’s I’d Do Anything who have been singing along on the sofa whilst enjoying the show now have the opportunity to have a go themselves!

Accompanying the television series will be a number of free BBC Learning events across the UK giving thousands of people the chance to sing as part of a group with the BBC Singers and musicians from the BBC Orchestras, as well as some familiar faces.

Adults and children over the age of eight are welcome to attend these fun and friendly sessions with songs from musical theatre.

All levels of ability will be catered for – from keen amateurs to absolute beginners who have never dared sing in public before.

Event details were announced by Graham Norton in the I’d Do Anything results show last night (Sunday 27 April 2008).

Registrations can be taken online at bbc.co.uk/oliver and through an automated phone service, 08700 100150, with lines closing at midnight on Monday 5 May 2008.
