Overview

Stars in Their Eyes is a talent show where contestants get the chance to appear and sing, as a famous singer. The show is most importantly a 'soundalike' show, but they are also dressed up to look as close as possible to the singer they are impersonating, often with wigs and heavy makeup.

The contestants appear firstly as themselves, talking briefly to the host about their lives and who they are going to be performing as, finishing with the now famous catchphrase

Celebrity specials

Celebrity editions of the show have been aired occasionally since 1998, and although a winner was announced for each show, unlike the original format each has so far been just a one-off special. Usually a handful of episodes is taped early in the year and then broadcast evenly throughout the months, unlike other shows. These episodes are not broadcast in a series format,but rather they are shown as specials every so often. It is not uncommon to see certain episodes months after they were taped.

This is a list detailing each broadcast episode that has aired so far. The winners are listed first in bold type, except for a few episodes between 2000 and 2001 where participants are known but not which particular episodes they were a part of.
