The TV presenters could be seen having coffee and joining the talent show judges at the auditions at The Lowry Hotel in Salford.
It comes after Simon Cowell was reportedly torched by Britain’s Got Talent hopeful in a terrifying stunt during London auditions last month.
The 63-year-old television judge was brought up on stage and a magician, who was masked during the show, pulled a hood over his head.
Mirror reported that lighter fluid was poured all over the hood, then his head was encased in a box that was opened at the front for the audience to see inside.
The magician then dropped a flame into the box and his entire head caught fire, leaving the other judges and the audience in shock.
One viewer said: ‘The audience screamed, the judges were out of their seats screaming, everyone was totally stunned.
“The flames died down and Simon stood up looking a bit shaken, while the rest of the judges breathed a sigh of relief as he returned to panel.”
Smiles: The presenting duo, both 47, seemed to be in their usual good spirits as filming for Britain’s Got Talent began in the city.

Simon then quipped: ‘I could feel fluid being poured on me, but I had no idea it was lighter fluid!’
Judge Alesha Dixon added: ‘Simon, he set your whole head on fire! It was very scary, you are a very brave man to do that. He made me realize how much we care about you, he was ready to come up and rescue you.
And new judge Bruno Tonioli said: “It reminded me of a scene from that movie, Saw, to see Simon’s head on that contraption.” He captivated me, I had never seen anything like it.
