BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT REVEALS THIS WEEKEND'S SEMI-FINALISTS AND GUEST PERFORMERS

For the first time in its 18 series history, the nation’s favourite talent show, Britain’s Got Talent, is introducing a brand new twist to the live semi-finals – the Golden Buzzer!

In a show first, the iconic buzzer will now appear during the live rounds, giving one judge or Ant & Dec the power to send an act straight through to the grand finale each week.

Britain’s Got Talent will be more entertaining than ever before, not only with the addition of the Golden Buzzer for the live shows, but the semi-finals will now air live every Saturday night, claiming the weekends as the home of BGT. Be prepared for unpredictable, unmissable and unbeatable event television.

In each of the five live semi-final rounds, either one judge or Ant & Dec will be appointed control of the new Golden Buzzer. As soon as they see a performance worthy of a place in the final, they will have just one opportunity to press it.

Judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli as well as presenters Ant & Dec, will have just moments after each performance to make a decision which could change the course of an act’s BGT journey, making them one huge step closer to securing the £250,000 cash prize and a spot on the bill of the Royal Variety Performance.

The eight acts that will be competing each night will put on the show of their lives, as they fight for that Golden Buzzer to be pressed, taking them straight to the final. The public will then vote for their winning act of the night, who will gain a place in the live final.

Performing on the fifth and final semi-final are:

• Binita

• CJ Emmons

• Han & Fran

• Harry Moulding

• Jerry Pop

• Lazy Generation

• Manho

• Red Panda

The UK’s most successful mixed sex pop group of all time, Steps, will be opening the show alongside the cast of their brand-new musical Here & Now, performing one of their greatest hits Tragedy. Tune in for a preview at the musical before it embarks on a major UK and Ireland tour this August. It would be a Tragedy to miss it!

Also, returning to the BGT stage are fan favourites, Diversity. Since winning the competition in 2009, the street dance group have gone on to sell out 11 tours across the country, with over one million tickets sold. Their performance on Saturday will be an exclusive preview of what is to come for their 2026 tour SOUL.

Joining Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli this week will be KSI. He will be reprising his role of guest judge after stepping in to cover a number of audition dates.

The semi-finals take place at the Eventim Apollo in London. Viewers can watch all the unmissable action take place exclusively on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player.
