Britain's Got Talent's biggest 'fix' rows
Britain's Got Talent has been plagued with 'fix' rows over the years. How many of these do you remember?
Jasmine Elcock - 2016:
Teenage singer Jasmine Elcock stunned the nation with her version of Cher's Believe. But it then transpired she had already performed professionally in London's West End. Jasmine, 14, admitted: "I've performed in Annie in the West End at about the age of nine or 10, but I really get nervous."
IrShad Shaikh - 2017:
BGT fans were left questioning the rule book when IrShad Shaikh auditioned.
Colin Thackery - 2019:
Elderly war veteran Colin won BGT in 2019, but
Axel Blake - 2022:
Comedian Axel Blake was given a Golden Buzzer in 2022 after making the judges laugh. But fans were fuming when they discovered
Singer Taryn Charles is one of this year's hopefuls lucky enough to receive the Golden Buzzer. Bruno Tonilio put her straight through to the semi-finals following her performance of (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman by
And a third echoed: 'Yes I forgot wild card. I think you might well get it 🤞🙏 but whatever I think we'll be hearing a lot of Max Fox from now on.'
It comes as BGT fans have
The ITV programme has seen a schedule shake-up this year with semi-final shows airing on Saturday nights as opposed to stripped across one week.

But that isn't the only format change to rock the talent contest.
This year, during the live semi-finals, each judge has been given a golden buzzer which they are allowed to press once.
Any act that receives the buzzer advances straight through to the final and does not face the public vote.
In previous years, the act with the most viewer votes advances to the final with the acts in second and third place then standing before the judges as they each pick one of the two to send through to the final.

However, the introduction of the live golden buzzer has not gone down well with fans -
Now, they are calling for the feature to be axed for next year in a stark move.
Taking to X - formerly Twitter - to rant about the show, one unimpressed telly watcher said: "Next year @BGT need to scrap the semi final buzzer for judges. Such poor choices.
"Alesha pressing for a comedian who wasn't funny was the icing on the cake!"

Another added following Joseph's performance: "THIS GUY IS JUST NOT FUNNY... Judges need to stop lying to acts and Biulding up false Hope, Golden buzzer??? Are u serious."
A third shared online: "This year the #BGT final is gonna be boring.
"The public keep putting through boring acts. In the semi finals, every time a judge has used a golden buzzer, it's been wrong."

Eamonn Holmes shares 'sad' health decline after falling off chair on live TV

Eamonn Holmes has issued a heartbreaking health update days after falling off his chair live on GB News. The presenter, 65, was also taken to hospital earlier in the month after he had a fall at his home. Sharing his dismay at his current state, Belfast man Eamonn took to social media to share a picture of himself looking healthy and sprightly from just three years ago. The presenter said it "made him sad" to see his decline as he told fans: "I could walk." In a bid to stay positive, Eamonn added: "Got to redouble my efforts." The presenter has been working hard on his rehabilitation after undergoing spinal surgery in 2022 for chronic back pain caused by three slipped discs. Over the last year he has been seen using a walking aid and a wheelchair as his mobility has become effected. Just last week, Eamonn sparked concern from fans when he took a tumble from his seat while presenting the GB News Breakfast show. During his Wednesday show, with his co-host Ellie Costello, a crash could be heard while the camera was focused on their guest, commentator Charlie Rowley, Mirror UK reports. Costello could be heard saying "oh my gosh" off-screen, and Holmes pleaded with Rowley to "carry on" before the presenter returned to the show following a break. Holmes said: "Welcome back. Good to see you again. Especially good for me to see you again. I am still alive, yes. And they're very wonky wheels on chairs that we've got here, and matter of fact, we don't really like the chairs full stop, do we? They're a bit slippy and slidey and I've slipped and slid off mine there. 'Not the first guest to have done so, we've had a few, they have to remain nameless because they're well known people, but they've hit the floor really badly, quite frightening. And it was a bit of a shock for me because I've had a fall in my bathroom two weeks ago, which hospitalised me, and that hit me again right in the back. (I'm) really, really sore. Really sore.' He later said the chair 'gave way' which meant he was lying flat on his back. He added: 'As the morning goes on, you feel aches and pains. The worst thing about this, of course, this was at a time when I was hospitalised two weeks ago for a very similar fall in the same area, back of the head, my neck, my shoulders. So it all came back, as it were.' On X, formerly Twitter, Rowley wrote: '@EamonnHolmes YOU are the real hero for carrying on this morning. A true professional and National Treasure who I learn from each and every week. It's a privilege working with you, @elliecostelloTV and the rest of the @GBNEWS family. Take care!'. On May 2, in an Instagram post that included a photo from the inside of an ambulance, Holmes thanked the crew who had helped him after he fell on his bathroom floor. The former This Morning host has long battled health issues after dislodging discs in his back which he said previously impinged on his sciatic nerve and affected the mobility of his right has spoken about going through spinal surgery, a double hip replacement, and his struggles walking and using a mobility scooter. Last year, Holmes and his wife Ruth Langsford announced their split, after tying the knot in 2010.
