How come no social distancing between them sitting at the table going over the acts from earlier in the year? Just curious!

I think it was filmed pre-lockdown, and was then not broadcast until they were ready to actually start the semi-finals. Simon Cowell now has a back injury that happened during lockdown, so it was definitely filmed well before that happened.

It was a bit rubbish really - they showed all those clips of acts, then at the end when they said which ones have gone through to the semi finals, it was every act we'd just seen - so there was no element of surprise at who had/hadn't gone through!

It was a bit rubbish, and I'm disappointed that the noise next door didn't go through.

I forgot I’d posted this! Had realised myself by the end of it it was probably filmed pre-lockdown. What an idiot Grin

I didn’t enjoy it at all either. Just a big repeat. When do the live shows start? Can’t be this weekend surely?

It continues tomorrow night but the audience is going to be virtual and the judges have socially distanced desks!

KurriKawari · 05/09/2020 16:00

Didn't Noise Next Door pull out of the show themselves?

mum2jakie · 05/09/2020 18:45

Who were Noise Next Door? Struggling to remember the acts this time

Here we go!!

Sorry to be the Covid police but how come Ant & Dec aren’t distancing? Do you not have to in England anymore? I’m Scotland.

Ant & Dec are supposedly having Covid tests every four days so don't have to SD?

I'm not sure it's working. I know they're doing their best with the background audience and the piped in cheering but it feels very stilted.

IsolaPribby · 05/09/2020 20:19

The turtles were poor!

MarleyTheDog · 05/09/2020 20:24

The turtles got thru to semi final???

That was dire 🙈

IsolaPribby · 05/09/2020 20:30

That is amazing!

MarleyTheDog · 05/09/2020 20:31

Wow! BGT just got interesting 😊

The audience is totally unnecessary.

That was impressive!

Talk about pulling on people's vulnerability!!!

IsolaPribby · 05/09/2020 20:32

Do we know what happened to the twin brother?

maybejustmaybe · 05/09/2020 20:36

I was thinking that about social distancing but they said that they have made a social bubble (think they can do that in England- I am also in Scotland)

The magician guy switched the photos and pre recorded a video. The only 'magic' was when he switched with his son behind the photo.

Elderflower14 · 05/09/2020 20:38

VERY unflattering outfit... Poor girl!!

I just assumed the brother didn’t do magic?
