Gary Barlow, Alesha Dixon, Dawn French and Craig David have been announced as the new judging panel for Simon Cowell’s new ITV musical game show, Walk The Line.

Television presenter Maya Jama has also been confirmed as the host of the show,  and it will see one music act win £500,000.

It will be produced by production companies Syco Entertainment and Lifted Entertainment, which have given Cowell an estimated worth of around $600m (£447m).

It comes as Cowell tries to make a comeback after ITV scrapped The X Factor in July after 17 years.

ITV have been contacted for comment.
