Britain’s Got Talent will return to screens this February as a new batch of performers hope to impress the judges.

Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli will return to give their judgement on the array of talent.

Iconic presenting duo Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly (Ant and Dec) are back as hosts.

The series always brings plenty of variety as members of the public show off what they can do.

A new trailer video for the upcoming series sees acrobatic acts flip across the stage, a drummer covered in paint as he rocks out on his kit and a pole dancer dressed in a bird mask.

It also featured a fire-wielding magician, dance tropes and a basketball player landing a slam dunk into a very high net.

Social media star KSI is also set to appear as a guest judge as he fills in for Tonioli on a handful of audition days.

British music star, YouTube personality and boxer KSI filled in on three audition days, including in Blackpool while Tonioli fulfilled filming commitments in the US.

KSI, real name Olajide JJ Olatunji, previously said he was “so excited” to be invited to join the judging panel after watching Britain’s Got Talent through the years.



Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Tonioli said of the change at the time: “Who better than a young, attractive, multi-talented star, known the world over, filling in for another young, attractive, multi-talented star, known the world over?”
