The producers of The Great British Bake Off are launching a hairdressing competition - eight years after forcing the BBC to ditch Hair for copying the baking show’s format.
Love Productions will launch The Big Blowout on E4 later this year, and are seeking “the next generation of super hairstylists” to take part. It comes after a huge row blew up in 2014 over the Hair, which was described as being “staggeringly similar” to GBBO.
It launched on BBC3 with Steve Jones and moved to BBC2 for its second run, with new host Katherine Ryan.
