Tears, tantrums and utterly bonkers talent: As BGT returns, the judges Amanda Holden, Simon Cowell, Bruno Tonioli and Alesha Dixon reveal their saucy high jinks, bitter celebrity feuds and the weirdest impressionist they've ever seen


You can't really imagine Amanda Holden not looking her bewitching best. But Britain's Got Talent is back, and the beautiful can soon turn bonkers behind the scenes.

Amanda has just been running around in circles backstage, stilettos in hand, as she desperately tried to escape fellow judge Simon Cowell, who had a pile of greasy spaghetti to tip over her and her stunning outfit. And what contestants they are on this 17th series of the ITV talent show, including a Japanese man who does impressions using his hair, an act featuring cardboard cut-outs of the judges and a pogo-stick jumper who reaches incredible heights. And in good old slapstick style – both on and off stage – there has been plenty of custard-pie throwing, not to mention Amanda saucily sitting on Simon's back as he was doing his press-ups, with Bruno joking, 'Is that how you got the job, love?'
