Kylie Minogue's fans hope they can convince their idol to remain on The Voice UK.

The 45-year-old singer took over from judge Jessie J for the current series of the TV talent show, but recently claimed she will not be returning for the next series as she begins her 'Kiss Me Once' tour at the end of the year, which clashes with the blind auditions for the 2015 episodes.

Viewers have taken to Twitter in protest of her quitting the show after Saturday's first live show attracted 7.3 million viewers, making it the most watched show on British TV that night.

Joe McGiffin wrote on Twitter: "Just how will The Voice ever be as good minus a Minogue? (sic)"

Lisa McGarry added: "Kylie leaving??? Don't go!!!! (sic)"

Meanwhile, a BBC spokesperson says they're trying to keep Kylie - who is a coach alongside alongside Sir Tom Jones, 73, and Ricky Wilson, 36, and will.i.am, 39 - on the show's panel and are willing to accommodate her touring schedule.

The spokesperson said: "We are aware of Kylie's touring commitments and are looking to accommodate them, so that if the series is re-commissioned she could return."
