What happened on Britain’s Got Talent?

Last night saw the second live semi-final of the series take place.

Eight acts took part in last night’s show. They were World Wings, Fabian Fox, Braunstone Community Primary School, Sadeck Berrabah & LMA, Katherine O’Malley, Macshane & Delby, Nic Vani, and Alfredo & Coral.

Two acts booked their place in the final. They were magician Fabian Fox, and dance group Sadeck Berrabah & LMA.

After the public vote closed, Ant and Dec went to speak to the judges about who they think the public will get behind.

“I feel like the magician,” KSI said. “Fabian?” Dec asked. “Yeah, Fabian,” KSI replied.

Simon then added, “If I had to put my money on any of them, it would be the magician.”

“Fabian,” Dec replied.

‘Disgusting’

Fans took to social media to slam the judges.

“NOT ONE OF THE JUDGES KNEW ANY OF THE ACTS’ NAMES…… disgusting,” one viewer fumed.

…at least learn the acts’ names. So amateurish from the judges, clearly don’t have time for magic acts, they borderline sabotage them most weeks as well,” another said. 

“The judges are literally getting paid millions, and they don’t have a clue who the names are of the people they are judging. So poor and lazy,” a third wrote.
