It’s finally here – the first live show of Britain’s Got Talent (BGT) 2024 will be coming to you from London’s Eventim Apollo in a matter of hours.
Tonight (May 27), the first round of semi-finalists will show off their talents again in front of judges Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and Bruno Tonioli.
Not to mention the Apollo audience and you at home.
Sunday evening (May 26) saw the last audition episode air, with the final golden buzzer given to Japanese skipping dancers Haribow by Simon’s son Eric and Amanda’s daughter Hollie.

During the episode, the group somersaulted across the stage doing various tricks and left the judges almost speechless.
They received a standing ovation from the audience and numerous pleas for a golden buzzer, which would put them straight through to the semi-finals and are generally used only by the judges and hosts, from the BGT fans.
Alesha said she had “none left” regarding the buzzers along with Bruno, while Simon said that he “did not know what to say”.
“They pressed it for the audience,” Amanda explained before calling the dancers “unbelievable”.
“My son is literally going crazy right now,” Simon added.
