Walk the Line is a British music competition television series created and produced by Lifted Entertainment and Syco Entertainment. The ITV programme is presented by Maya Jama with a judging panel consisting of Gary Barlow, Craig David, Dawn French and Alesha Dixon.

Format Walk the Line is a music competition where five music acts appear and compete for the grand final prize of £500,000. However, instead of going straight into the final, the winner of an episode has to decide whether to come back the next night to perform again with the risk of being dropped from the competition at that point. If they do not want to take that risk then they can take a monetary prize (£10,000 in the first episode, with the prize increasing by a further £10,000 each night), with the runner-up continuing on towards the grand prize by competing in the next episode. Episode winners The winner of the first three episodes was Bristol-born singer Ella Rothwell, who has previously released singles such as "Stop Calling", "Freedom" and "Velvet Heart" under the name Rothwell.
