Here’s your first look at some of the acts stepping before the Britain’s Got Talent judges this weekend.
The 2023 series of Britain’s Got Talent begins tonight (15 April) on ITV1 and ITVX at 8PM.
Ant & Dec are back overseeing proceedings in the wings. As always they will be on hand to cheer on contestants brave enough to face the panel.
Making up the judges this year are Alesha Dixon, Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and new face on the show, Bruno Tonioli.
As usual acts need three or more yeses from the panel to get through to the second round where they could make the semi-finals. Also back is the golden buzzer which sees lucky performers straight through to the live shows.
