They were incredible though if you like that sort of thing.

It's a shame they've told us not to try this at home because I've got a pile of wood in the garage.

I was worried about them getting splinters.

Elderflower14 · 20/04/2024 21:02

I got a splinter in my finger at work this morning. Nothing as exciting as them. Off a wooden bread box!! 🤣 🤣

I tonight the first few acts were good. Music teacher very cool but so Mr Poppy like. First act very clever with the AI. Great show opener. Also liked the Kent singer - thought she was going to do stand up comedy as she was such a joker! Thought the South Korean Tai Kwondo act was very original and deserved the golden buzzer from A & D.

Really hated the fish and that burping American woman. Was with Alesha when she walked off! Bruno should not have changed his mind. The cheerleaders were also great. Would have loved to learn how to do things like that when I was younger!

ElleLeopine · 20/04/2024 21:47

Dogs, Karate, and Tomorrow singer were great.

Burping woman was absolutely awful. Disgusting and disturbing.

MollsDolls · 20/04/2024 22:32

Loved the first 3 acts. Kinda went down hill after that for me. I did did enjoy the karate act but wouldn't have been a golden buzzer for me. Burping woman was gross. Like WTF.
Looking forward to tomorrow nights show.

The fish and burping woman were complete wastes of space, with the burping woman being actively repulsive. The AI act at the beginning - I get it was entertaining for the judges, as it was their faces up there. Not sure it's so much fun for anyone else.

I liked the singer from Kent.

Piggywaspushed · 21/04/2024 10:29

I didn't find the burping woman repulsive. Very silly . She'll disappear without trace but as an outlier I found it reasonably funny...

Piggywaspushed · 21/04/2024 10:31

I say this every year but I wish the producers would stop their obsession with slow motion. That tae kwon do (it's not karate folks!) act was probably amazing in the theatre as it will have been load and really fast. The swirling cameras seem to have stopped a bit but they still slow everything down. It's tedious.

Just watched this after recording it yesterday as I was at a wedding!

The lass from Kent was quite clearly a plant/scouted. She was brilliant obviously, but it's been revealed this morning that she is a west end star! Yes fine, I know people need their break, but why not admit that? Stop presenting these acts as shy and nervous amateurs.

The goldfish act was supremely unfunny, and got more unfunny each time he went on!

The burping woman made me PMSL, but also feel quite nauseaous. DH and I were also looking at each other like Shock and saying HOW? How is she doing that? Constantly burping? I must admit I don't know how she has a boyfriend. I can't imagine anyone being attracted to anyone who does that! 😬

The taekwondo team were superb! Seemed so humble and genuine. I mean they may have been scouted, and may well be famous in South Korea, but I doubt it. Hope they make the final!

The dog act - I have no words. She was in the FINAL a few years ago. IMO she should not have been allowed back. I didn't even think the act was that good. The dogs were super cute and well behaved, but the act seemed messy and disorganised to me.

The impressionist man (who did some female singers) was quite good, although I would not have known half of the impressions if the picture(s) of each singer hadn't been behind him. Yet the judges said he was the best impressionist they'd seen for years. (One judge said he was the best ever to appear on the show... Can't remember which one said this sorry.) I would not agree with that!

I think BGT are running out of popularity, and talent - and people who want to be on the show, judging by the quality of some acts, and the fact that there didn't seem to be much on Twitter about it, and this thread on here hardly has anything posted on it! 😬

Hellendegenerate · 21/04/2024 12:12

I only caught the second half and won't bother getting it on catch up. That goldfish guy, I thought he might take the rubber head off and surprise everyone with a great singing voice. Sadly not. The burping idiot, words fail me.

This show is all about the judges and Bruno Tonioli is twat.

My humble opinion only of course. I'm sure he speaks highly of me. 😁

I am not a fan of Bruno either. I can't articulate why. I just think he is a bit boring, and doesn't strike me as a particularly good judge. I almost wish they'd bring back David Walliams! 😬 I was genuinely hoping Bruno wouldn't be on it this year tbh, and that they'd replaced him with someone else.

Yeah ...the girl from Kent has obviously been scouted..

Producers were most likely trying for another Susan Boyle/Paul Potts moment ....

Unfortunately...they forgot bout
t'internet (and social media and stuff ) ....
So we now know she went to a performing arts school, has been performing for 9 years , has been in Grease and just finished 4 years in Starlight Express !

Be nice if she had been honest and said ...I have been overlooked, not noticed and I just want to show what I can do .

It will put people off her ...like that girl who was the singer on The Greatest Showman.

Do we think we are going to have the goldfish turning up at each audition now. 😁😅😅.

Dogs were cute ...but all getting boring now !

Ahhh well......busy now ....
need to get myself organised for tonights excitement 😅😁😁!!

bizzey · 21/04/2024 17:50

Would love to watch it live ...but 11/12 adverts per break is too much to sit through!

JenniferBooth · 21/04/2024 18:06

Had to put up with this crap last night as i was visiting my parents. A burping woman and a load of people copying her is what passes for entertainment on a Saturday night these days. DM started moaning about it yet it was on because she was the only one wanting to watch this shit

RocketsMagnificent7 · 21/04/2024 19:48

That child is absolutely beautiful! And so confident for 10!!

GrandTheftWalrus · 21/04/2024 19:49

Too many hand picked for this show now.

Elderflower14 · 21/04/2024 19:50

Not being unkind but what was all the fuss about. Nice enough young man but that's about it...

Very cute kid. They are hardly going to say no after all that hype.

Agree with this. Better dancers have been on the show.

Piggywaspushed · 21/04/2024 19:52

Well, that's one of the oldest 10 year old I've seen.

Tiptoptum · 21/04/2024 19:52

I don’t like all this “inviting” to come and audition.
Everyone should have to enter in the same way, off their own back.
Also, didn’t find the dancing that amazing, good, but I’m not sure it would stand out
