Britain’s Got Talent 2022 has kicked off their auditions to find Britain’s next star.
Last year, the hit competition show was cancelled by ITV as it would have been too difficult to film safely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, it’s back with both the previous judges of: Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden, Simon Cowell and David Walliams as well as presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly reuniting to search for rising talent across the country.
Of course, the judges will also be armed with their dreaded red buttons and the legendary golden buzzer once again — but who will be awarded with the golden buzzer? Comedian and musician Jon Courtenay was crowned the winner of the competition in 2020 and was the first ever Golden Buzzer Act to win.
