'The Voice' UK coaches returning for second series, says Tom Jones

The Voice UK coach Sir Tom Jones has claimed that he, Jessie J, will.i.am and Danny O'Donoghue will all return for a second series of the show.

The legendary singer confirmed that talks with the BBC have already begun and he has made it clear that he wants to come back.



"The BBC has already asked me to come back for the next series and I've said yes," The Mirror quotes him as saying. "We have already begun discussions.

"They are ongoing but I would very much like to do it again. They're happy with the judges (sic) as we are, and it looks like all of us will be back, even will."

It has been reported that the coaches will all receive a pay rise for the next series of The Voice. willi.am is to pocket £525,000, Jones and Jessie J will reportedly receive around £260,000 and O'Donoghue will also be paid a six-figure sum.

The BBC is alleged to have ordered a revamp of The Voice UK's live shows after ratings fell for its last weekend's instalments.
