‘It spoils the flow for me’: Britain’s Got Talent viewers furious over distracting feature

Fans of Britain’s Got Talent all said the same thing about a much-used feature on Saturday night’s final audition show.

Dance troupe Notorious, who are between the ages of 8 and 16 and hail from Wales, took the stage and received four yeses after their impressive routine.

While the dance troupe wowed the judges with their talent, viewers couldn’t help but be “distracted” by one aspect of the show: slow-mo shots.

Fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts, with one penning: ‘Oh no, not another slow-mo shot of a dance troupe’

Another said: ‘I wish they stopped the slow-mo during some acts. It spoils the flow for me’

A third wrote: ‘I’m not a fan of these slow motion shots on #BGT, it’s a little too often. yawn.

One fan added, “STOP with the slow-mo effects. Complete overkill and unnecessary, completely ruin it for me and many other viewers I bet’

One commented, “I’m struggling to enjoy #BGT with the OTT production, adding slow motion to all the acts and the slowed down crowd cheering, it’s just irritating!”

Elsewhere in the show, Simon took a hilarious swipe at Alesha Dixon on Saturday’s Britain’s Got Talent when he declared that a dog performing one of her songs was “better than the original.”

In the final round of auditions, hopefuls tried to impress Simon, Alesha, Amanda Holden and Bruno Tonioli in hopes of earning a place in the live semi-final rounds.

But when dog owner Michelle and her pet dog Mouse took the stage with a performance of Alesha’s 2008 song Breathe Slow, Simon couldn’t help but examine her singing skills.

Simon gave his verdict on Mouse’s audition, saying, ‘When I heard the song I thought it couldn’t get any better, but actually it’s better than the original!

“Normally I don’t say this, I mean it!”

Fortunately, Alesha thought it was all hilarious and burst out laughing when she heard the dog’s song choice.

Meanwhile, Amanda suggested the two could do a duet, while presenter Ant McPartlin suggested the dog’s howling was a “cry for help.”

Distracting: While the dance troupe wowed the judges with their talent, viewers couldn’t help but be “distracted” by one hallmark of the show: slow-mo shots

But despite the judges seeing the funny side of the act, viewers at home disagreed and soon took to Twitter to share their disappointment at seeing a dog “howling into a microphone.”

“Who’s going to pay to see a dog howl. It’s a NO from me,” one viewer tweeted.

While a second shared, “Just because it’s a dog and cute doesn’t mean it’s good.”

“Why do they clap a howling dog into a microphone?” asked a third spectator.

“What was the point of that?” asked an unimpressed fourth person.

With one more addition: ‘Do people really think their own dogs can sing, seriously nooooooooooooo.’

At the end of the episode, fans were left in tears as the judges awarded a joint golden buzzer to an act for the first time.

Oh dear! When dog owner Michelle and her pet dog Mouse took the stage to perform Alesha’s 2008 song Breathe Slow, Simon couldn’t help but examine her singing skills.

The rules are changing: Fans of Britain’s Got Talent were left in tears as the judges awarded a joint golden buzzer to an act for the first time

Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and Bruno Tonioli were visibly moved when Musa Motha, a South African native whose leg was amputated due to cancer, was stunned with a vigorous dance routine.

The former footballer, who now lives in London, shared how, after giving up on his sporting dreams, he learned to dance with the help of his friends.

Despite being impressed with the performance and giving Musa a standing ovation, the judges were unable to give him a golden buzzer as it had already been used in previous auditions, leading to a booing from the audience.

This led to the judges breaking the rules and making the decision to hit the buzzer collectively, meaning six acts progress through the golden buzzer to the semi-finals for the first time.

Musa wowed the judges and audience alike with his moving dance to Naughty Boy and Beyoncé’s song Runnin’, in which he used his crutches to elevate his movements.

He was rewarded with a standing ovation, with Amanda looking visibly emotional, while presenters Ant and Dec stated the performance was ‘sensational’.
