Alan Carr is braced for a backlash when his new show kicks off.<\/p>\n

The comedian, 47, is a judge on singing contest Mamma Mia! I Have A Dream. Producers hired him even though he can\u2019t hold a tune, and he knows that\u2019ll annoy quite a few viewers.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI\u2019m sure some people will moan and go, \u2018What\u2019s he done? He\u2019s never done the West End\u2019. But I\u2019m a stand-up performer. I do a little bit of this, a little bit of that. But also I go to the theatre a lot. I love it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alan is on the judging panel alongside Glee actress Amber Riley, West End sensation Samantha Barks and pop star Jessie Ware. The former chat show host knows he can\u2019t compete with them when it comes to vocals, but reckons he still deserves to be sat alongside them.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThe other three really know their stuff. Between them, I think they\u2019ve \u00adperformed on every stage going, from the West End, Broadway, Coachella, Wembley Arena. There\u2019s not a stage those three have not been on and they know the technical side.<\/p>\n

"But there has to be a space for the \u00adpeople at home. You know what I mean? And that\u2019s me. I\u2019m Fred and Vera sitting on the sofa at home. I\u2019m basically Gogglebox.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the series, hosted by Radio 1 DJ Zoe Ball, 14 hopefuls will compete for roles in the West End production of Mamma Mia! Two winners will get coveted contracts to play the leading roles of Sky and Sophie \u2014 the couple played by Dominic Cooper and Amanda Seyfried in the movie version.<\/p>\n

Alan is promising the talent on the show will be top-notch. He said: \u201cIt\u2019s that perfect mix of professionals and novices. There\u2019s someone who works in a factory, there\u2019s someone who works in a coffee shop.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are people who are trained, they\u2019ve been to drama school for three years. There are people from all over. We\u2019ve given people from all walks of life a chance. Everyone can sing, everyone is super- \u00adtalented, so you get a whole load of entertainment as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Every episode will be packed with performances of Abba classics including Waterloo, The Winner Takes It All and Fernando. Alan reckons it\u2019s just what Brits need when there\u2019s so much bad news at the moment.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI just think it\u2019s so colourful, it\u2019s so fabulous, it\u2019s so fun. The show is like a Berocca for me. The show is just joyful fun on one of the most beautiful islands you\u2019ll see. So yeah, what\u2019s not to love? It\u2019s lovely.\u201d<\/p>\n

The series kicks off at 6pm on Saturday on ITV1.<\/b><\/p>\n
