Synopsis
Talent show to find the next two people to play Sophie and her love interest Sky in the West End show Mamma Mia!.
Most heats were filmed on a sun-kissed Greek island, where the set from the musical had been painstakingly re-created. The final was live from London's West End.

Trivia
What happens in Mamma Mia!? On the fictional Greek island of Kalokairi, 20-year-old Sophie is just about to marry her fiancé Sky. Sophie is conflicted because she doesn't know who her father is, and finds three potential suspects from her hotelier mother Donna's old diary: Sam, Bill, and Harry. Not wanting to marry without knowing her father, Sophie invites all three men to the wedding without her mother's knowledge. What is Donna to do when three exes show up at once? Sing the hits of ABBA, crowbarred into the plot with all the subtlety of ITV's premium-rate competition.
The programmes also featured input from Judy Craymer, the creator and producer of Mamma Mia!, and her employees: choreographer Anthony Van Lasst, musical maestro Martin Lowe, and casting supremo David Grindrod. They were to advise the judges, but not make any final decisions.
