World Idol

World Idol was a one-time version of Pop Idol. It featured eleven contestants, who each were winners of a version of Pop Idol. Ten countries and one multi-country unit took part in the contest. 

The performance show was broadcast on Christmas Day 2003, with the results show aired on New Year's Day 2004. After presenting the competitors, viewers from the 11 participating countries were allowed to vote by telephone, but not for the participant from their home country.

British presenters Ant & Dec hosted the show on most English speaking countries, while local presenters hosted for their own country in the local language. 

The winner was based on points. Based on the results of each country's public vote, each country awarded a number of points from 1 to 10 to each other country, using each number once (for example, first place of a vote got 10 points while last place got 1 point).
