Following the success of Any Dream Will Do, the BBC will be looking for the stars of the hit musical Oliver! for its next talent search.
In I'd Do Anything, the search is on to find a new star to play the role of Nancy and a total of three young protégés who will take it in turns to play orphaned urchin Oliver.
Once again, Graham Norton will host with Andrew Lloyd Webber back on his throne - but this time the show will involve another titan of musical theatre, Cameron Mackintosh.
Alongside Andrew, a select panel of judges will appear on the show each week to offer their expert opinions on the contestants, all of whom will be hoping to win the chance to appear on stage in London's West End.
The search for the nation's next Oliver and Nancy will begin with auditions early in 2008.
The show will broadcast on BBC1 next year.
Elaine Bedell, Controller, Entertainment Commissioning, said: "We're really pleased to be building on the success of Any Dream Will Do with a new search for West End stars next year.
"Oliver! is a much-loved British musical so we're sure the show will unite families and melt hearts across the UK as we watch some of Britain's best new talent take centre stage."
