SF: Casting show "Die grössten Schweizer Talente" starts
In two weeks, the talent show «Die grössten Schweizer Talente» (DGST) will premiere on SF 1. From more than 1,000 applications, the judging panel—consisting of Christa Rigozzi, Roman Kilchsperger, and DJ Bobo—has nominated 24 acts for the semifinals.
One of the special talents will be on the winners' podium on March 20, 2011.
as announced by Swiss Radio and Television (SRF) on Friday. The two presenters Andrea Jansen and Sven Epiney will then announce the result of the public vote.
DGST is modeled on the show "Britain's Got Talent", which made singer Susan Boyle famous. DGST is looking for talents such as dancing, singing, magic, animal training and acrobatics. The participants only have to fulfill one criterion: They have to win over the jury and, above all, the audience.
In the first four episodes, which will be broadcast from January 29, SRF will show the recording of the casting in December, in which the 24 tickets for the semi-finals were awarded. From February 27, eight of the talents will then compete in three live shows to reach the final. The votes of the TV audience will also be decisive here.
