NEW ENTERTAINMENT
Britain’s Got Talent
Saturday, ITV HD, 8pm
With everyone in need of some fun and entertainment right now, there’s one show on TV that’s guaranteed to provide that.
Britain’s Got Talent returns to ITV for its 14th series this week, featuring all manner of weird, wonderful and daring acts.
Fronted once again by Ant and Dec, the prerecorded audition shows kick off on Saturday night as planned, though due to the coronavirus crisis ITV has said the live semi-finals will now be shown at a later date.
‘I think it’s for the best. Our show would suffer quite badly from not having a proper audience,’ says the show’s judge Amanda Holden, who returns to the panel alongside David Walliams, Alesha Dixon and Simon Cowell. ‘But the audition shows are better than ever.’
