BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT returned this evening and viewers were treat to a glimpse of Ant and Dec back together on their screens - but some thought their role was slightly smaller.
ITV’s hugely popular Britain’s Got Talent showcased the weird and the wonderful earlier this evening.
However, with Ant and Dec back on screens, some viewers demanded even more of them.
Fans were concerned their role was “smaller” than previous years, in light of Ant McPartlin’s recent drink-driving arrest.
ITV have already confirmed Declan Donnelly will host the show without his co-star when it goes to the live episodes.
However, some think that moment has come sooner rather than later, and have accused the show of “editing” Ant and Dec’s scenes
One fan wrote on Twitter: “Two main observations of #BGT so far: 1. Amanda Holden looks odd. 2. Blatant editing to cut as much of Ant out as possible.”
Another added: “Has this been edited to be more Dec heavy than Ant? Or is it just me?”
A second posted: “Have they edited a lot of Ant & Dec out of this?”
Meanwhile, another agreed, suggesting: “Hope Ant’s allowed to speak. They seem to have edited mainly his back.”
Express.co.uk has contacted a representative of Britain’s Got Talent, who declined to comment.
However, Ant and Dec were no doubt an integral part of tonight’s episode having pressed their Golden Buzzer before anyone else.
Marc Spelmann, from London delivered his unique brand of magic.
In his heart-wrenching routine, the act revealed his family tragedy.
His wife fell pregnant through the use of IVF eventually, but was struck with a bout of cancer.
Thankfully, the unborn child survived intensive chemotherapy and the family live happy and healthy together today.
Ant and Dec in particular were moved by the moving act and ran to press their Golden Buzzer, meaning Marc will get straight through to the live finals.
And viewers were overjoyed to see the result and flocked to Twitter to share their elation.
One wrote: “The magician, Marc Spelmann absolutely put me in tears, such an amazing act. The golden buzzer was well deserved.”
A second added: “Magician Marc Spelmann absolutely deserved the first @BGT golden buzzer of the series, after his incredible moving magical act.”
