Ant McPartlin, 47, was seen brandishing a megaphone as co-host Declan Donnelly, also 47, was in the driver’s seat as the second day of the auditions began.
The Geordie duo looked in high spirits as they commanded attention in the yellow and black motorized rickshaw, nicknamed ‘Tyneside Taxis’.
Here come the boys: Ant and Dec attended the Britain’s Got Talent auditions in style on Wednesday, arriving in a New York tax-style vehicle.
While Ant bundled up in a sleek black jacket, his friend Dec kept out the cold in a forest green coat and black gloves.
They both finished their dressy/casual outfits with dark jeans and boots.
Like BGT star Amanda Holden, the pair sported the same outfit as the day before, no doubt for continuity reasons.
It comes after Britain’s Got Talent revealed its judging lineup on Tuesday as the show kicked off for another year, with Bruno Tonioli officially joining the panel.
Make some noise: Ant McPartlin, 47, was seen brandishing a megaphone as co-host Declan Donnelly, also 47, was in the driver’s seat as the second day of the auditions began.
Bruno, 67, said: ‘Here we are, Britain’s Got Talent. I’m so excited. It’s my first show, I have no idea what’s going to happen, but I’m sure it’s going to be brilliant.’
And it looks like the newest judge, who is paid a whopping £850,000, is already causing trouble, according to prep act Adam Khan.
They said that Bruno had pressed the golden buzzer, but had done so early to prevent Simon Cowell and Alesha Dixon from hitting him, so he had pressed it during the act.

As a result, the moment had to be recorded again so that the cameras could be set up correctly.
Adam tweeted: ‘So… Just witnessed the #BGT story! An act ensued…it was pretty clear Alesha and Simon wanted to push the #GoldenBuzzer…
‘So Bruno went ahead of them and pushed *during the act*! They were performing with confetti falling on them and the BGT theme playing in the back!’

“Now we have to re-record the #GoldenBuzzer moment because there were no cameras positioned correctly as no one expected it to happen during the act.”
Within the auditions, Ant and Dec introduced the four judges to the stage as they walked towards Survivor’s Eye Of The Tiger.
Joking that Simon has “teased” him with the job for years, a fan filmed from the audience as Bruno told the audience: “Thank you very, very much.” I am delighted to be here.
Turning to Amanda and Alesha, she continued: ‘Look at these girls, they are stunning. And my old friend Simon, what an honor it is to finally work with you, he’s bugged me with this for years and years and years and years.
oops! It seems the newest judge, who is paid a whopping £850,000, is already causing trouble, according to the Adam Khan prep act.
‘Honestly, I’m delighted to be here. Emotional and very, very nervous.
While Alesha later shared: ‘Well, you know what, Bruno? I think you should try pressing the bell.
The judges and audience then counted down as the pro rang the buzzer, with Alesha adding, “Welcome to the show,” before thanking her fellow panel members and giving each one a hug.
Oh darling! They said that Bruno had pressed the golden buzzer, but he had done it early to prevent Simon Cowell and Alesha Dixon from hitting him, so he had pressed it during the act.
