'Not for me!' Britain's Got Talent viewers divided over contestant's 'dreadful' performance
It's the second week of auditions..Britain’s Got Talent returned tonight (February 28) to see the latest round of auditions. And it certainly got a lot of fans talking.
Last week saw the brand-new series of the hit ITV show start once again. This year, there was a huge shake-up to the judging panel, as KSI returned full-time, replacing Bruno Tonoli.
Tonight saw the judges return once again, alongside hosts Ant and Dec, to find the next best act, who are battling it out for a huge cash prize, and the chance to perform at the Royal Variety Show.
MacShane & Delby impressed the judges
Tonight, Britain’s Got Talent kicked off with some impressive acts. But while judges were left amazed, the viewers at home weren’t quite as captivated.
Australian duo Macshane & Delby flew all the way to the UK to impress the judges and showcase their talent.
Introducing themselves, the pair explained they flew “over 30 hours for the best three minutes” of their lives. And it seems it paid off.
The pair were freestyle rappers, and so they actually hadn’t prepped their audition at all. Instead, they were relying on the audience – and the judges – lifting any object into the air and they would create their rap right there and then.
All of the judges were immediately amazed by the act. They received an immediate yes from every judge – with KSI particularly interested in them.

A fourth commented: “What are they even singing about?”
“Two great guys but not for me at all. That was too chaotic and all over the place,” another added.
Another said: “Disagree completely with the judges there. It wasn’t that good.”
However, a few viewers actually seemed impressed, with one fan even thinking they deserved the golden buzzer.
