Well you can’t keep him down for long! We recently reported that Simon Cowell had to scrap plans for a new duets show planned for ITV1 as the BBC had beat him to it.

But Mr Cowell, never one to be ebaten has come up with a new show, one like no other before it!

Simon Cowell, creator of shows like the X Factor and American Idol is creating a new talent competition for magicians and other stage performers.

The new show will have national auditions before a panel of judges, and viewer voting. Cowell will serve as executive producer, but won’t be a judge.
