Details have been released of the updates being made to the format of the UK version of The Voice.

And one of the most talked-about changes is likely to be a new "steal" twist introduced to the battle rounds.

This will give [uuid=fe93c0b5-100f-4f3f-9eff-fd3f374acefd]Will.I.Am, Jessie J, Danny O'Donoghue - the opportunity to "steal" a contestant once a rival has eliminated them in the "battle rounds" stage of the show.

Following each battle, the loser will get a moment to pitch to the judges why they should stay in the contest - and there will then be a moment when the judges can press their "steal" button to poach the hopeful.

If more than one coach attempts a "steal", the contestant will get to choose between them.

Coaches will only be able to steal one contestant each during the entire show.

There will also be a new "knockout" round at the end of the battles. Each judge will have seven contestants at this point, and each of those will perform a "killer song" to state their case for a place in the final.

The coaches will then choose three apiece to take forward into the finals - thus creating the final 12.

Leanne Mitchell won last year's show.
