Britain's Got the Pop Factor... and Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice

Britain's Got the Pop Factor... and Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice is a British television comedy show co-created, co-written, directed, produced by and starring comedian Peter Kay. The two-hour show was broadcast in two parts on Channel 4 on 12 October 2008. The title and general format of the film is a parody of talent search-based reality television shows. The title of the show is an amalgamation of other talent-search reality shows, as well as a stage show (representing the show-within-a-show mentioned below); in order - Britain's Got Talent, Pop Idol, The X Factor, celebrity variants of pre-existing shows, Jesus Christ Superstar (in reference to Andrew Lloyd Webber's BBC series of musical-based talent shows), Soapstar Superstar, Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing on Ice. As well as being the title of the show, Britain's Got the Pop Factor is the title of the fictional series within the show, where Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice is the name of another fictional talent show, to which the winner of Britain's Got The Pop Factor gains automatic entry. After the end credits, the show advertised its "sequel", due to be shown the next year: Celebrity Fiddler on the Roof In the Jungle, an amalgam of British reality show I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here and the musical Fiddler on the Roof. It was the first show Kay had produced on the channel for four years, and was described by Channel 4 as the 'comedy forefront of the autumn schedule, which [would] begin a year-long season of programmes'. The show was rerun in its entirety on 14 December 2008. Due to the release of "I Know Him So Well", a duet by winner Geraldine McQueen and Susan Boyle for Red Nose Day 2011, the show was repeated on 26 March of that year, with the video for the song shown immediately afterwards.
