However, last week's semi final saw the return of KSI as a guest judge, making him the fifth judge in the last of the semi finals. The YouTuber faced criticism after hitting the Golden Buzzer for magician Harry Moulding, after his act took an unexpected turn as it ended with a touching proposal, with an audience member being asked the big question in front of judges and live audience.
The moment prompted KSI to grant him a fast pass to the final with the coveted Golden Buzzer. This moment, however, was followed by nine year old dancing sensation Binita Chetry, whose performance captivated the nation.
Viewers voiced their displeasure on social media with one tweeting their frustration that Binita didn't receive the Golden Buzzer: "Really p***es me off thst KSI would use his golden buzzer on a TALENTLESS completely staged act instead of on a 9 year old girl with a genuine gift #bgt."

Sydney Sweeney is selling soap that contains her actual bathwater
Sydney Sweeney fans can now lather up with the actor's bathwater in a limited-edition soap made by men's natural body wash brand Dr. Squatch. The Emmy-nominated star, who rose to fame on the HBO series "Euphoria," appeared soaking in a bathtub in a viral Dr. Squatch commercial in October, inspiring the new product release. "You kept asking about my bathwater after the @drsquatch ad… so we kept it," Sweeney wrote in the caption of a joint Instagram post with the company announcing the product. "Sydney's Bathwater Bliss" will be available on the Dr. Squatch website for a limited time starting at 12 p.m. on June 6, selling at $8 a bar. The product's description says it is a "perfect combination of the two best places on the planet: The outdoors and Sydney Sweeney's bathtub." Made with sand, sea salt and shea butter, Sweeney's bathwater is listed as the "narrative element" on the ingredient list, which calls it "one of nature's fines aphrodisiacs." The soap's 'morning wood' scent blends pine, Douglas fir and earthy moss with a 'touch' of actress's bathwater. 'Why? Because y'all wouldn't stop asking,' the company stated in an Instagram post on Thursday announcing a giveaway of the product. The company also shared some "wild fan mail" they received from fans in on social media Friday, including requests for Sweeney's bathwater to water bonsai trees or use as eye drops. 'When your fans start asking for your bathwater, you can either ignore it, or turn it into a bar of Dr. Squatch soap,' the 27-year-old actor said in a release, NBC Washington reported. The product drew a mixed reaction from fans in her Instagram comments, with many criticizing the star's soap and calling it "disgusting," and others expressing their disbelief. The actress stood by her new soap in the release, calling it "weird in the best way" and an "unforgettable" product. "This bar is bizarre, unexpected, and meant to get guys thinking more deeply about what they're putting on their bodies," John Ludeke, senior vice president of global marketing for Dr. Squatch, said in the release.

Corrie legend floors fans as they realise he starred in Harry Potter
Like many of the soap stars, Corrie's Tony Maudsley has been on our screens for decades, however his appearance in Harry Potter is what's leaving viewers shocked. Before he was digging graves in Weatherfield, Coronation Street star Tony Maudsley made a memorable appearance in the Harry Potter universe - as a half-giant. The actor debuted as George Shuttleworth in September 2020, arriving on the ITV soap as the offspring of the deceased undertaker Archie Shuttleworth (Roy Hudd). But long before he was burying Corrie legends, he had a buried cameo of his own in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - which was released 17 years ago today, July 12, 2007. In the wizarding world, Tony portrayed Grawp the gentle half-brother of beloved Hogwarts gamekeeper Hagrid, played by the late Robbie Coltrane. Grawp, who stood at around 16 feet tall in the books, was brought to life through a mix of CGI and motion capture, with Tony providing the on-set performance that helped animate the character. In the film, Grawp's kind-hearted nature played a pivotal role in the downfall of Dolores Umbridge (Imelda Staunton), the cruel Ministry official who took over as Hogwarts Headmistress. After she threatened Harry with the Cruciatus Curse, Hermione lured her into the Forbidden Forest, where Grawp handed her over to an angry herd of centaurs. Dolores, held a deep-seated bias against "half-breeds" and seized control as Headmistress after displacing Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) She also put Hagrid on probation, prompting him to implore Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) to look after his little brother should anything happen to him. As Umbridge was about to resort to the Cruciatus curse on Harry, Hermione agreed to reveal Dumbledore's "secret weapon." Speaking about the role, Tony told Female First: 'I was weighed down with these huge monster feet that were so heavy, that I could never get into the canteen and back in time.' Tony's career also includes a fan-favourite stint in Benidorm as hairdresser Kenneth, making him a familiar face across British telly. And don't expect his Corrie character to disappear anytime soon either. He also appeared on The Big Soap Quiz Coronation Street v Emmerdale last year, Tony joked that he's got job security in the bag. When asked how George was getting on in Weatherfield, he said: 'Well, business is booming as always in Weatherfield. The best thing about playing George is, they can't kill me off because there's no one to bury me! So yeah, I'm staying put, me!' On the quiz show, other Corrie stars Channique Sterling-Brown and Jack P Shepherd appeared, with Stephen Mulhern hosting the battle of the soaps. From magical forests to funeral homes, Tony Maudsley's career has been anything but ordinary, and that's exactly why fans love him.

Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives stars want series to show ‘we are normal'
The first season of the hit reality series followed a group of Mormon influencers based in Utah in the US, caught in the midst of a sex-swinging scandal. Mormonism is a restorationist Christian movement which discourages alcohol, tobacco and caffeine, as well as sex outside marriage. Ngatikaura and Whitney Leavitt discussed the show's next season on ITV's This Morning and explained that the series followed the creation of 'MomTok' – a collective of women who make videos on TikTok. 'MomTok is a group of women. We all did social media together, and it started out just a group of mums getting together and making fun videos on social media, and then it turned into what it is today, which is crazy,' said Leavitt. She added: 'I think what's really cool about this whole group is that all of us live it a little bit differently, like some maybe a little bit more than others. 'So hopefully someone who's watching can relate to one of us, but yeah, no drinking coffee, no premarital sex, dress modestly, no tattoos.' Ngatikaura left the church and said there are women 'of different faith levels' on the show. 'I left about five, six years ago, but my family is Mormon, my friends are Mormon, so I'm still in the culture,' she said. 'It just wasn't for me. But I love that about our show, is that we have so many different faith levels. 'So we showcase someone who is super active, someone who is not any more, which I think is relatable to any religion.' This Morning presenter Paddy McGuinness said it is 'good to talk' about Mormonism so people know 'it's not what you think it is when you see the films'. Ngatikaura responded: 'We wanted to show that because everyone thinks Mormons are like pilgrims and sister wives and we can't do anything, but we showcase that we are just normal people.' Season two follows the lives of the women after the success of season one and sees Miranda McWhorter join the series 'to set the record straight on the swinging scandal'. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints officially condemns polygamy but there are other groups, referred to as 'Mormon fundamentalists', who engage in the practice. The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives season two is available on Disney+ in the UK.
