BGT judges’ most furious moments from stage storm-offs to fiery rows and awkward axings
BRITAIN’S Got Talent is as much about the judges as it is the talent taking part.
Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli know how to grab the headlines while judging on Britain’s Got Talent.
And it’s very clear they don’t like not getting their own way.
After the ITV show returned for a brand-new series, we take a look at the judges’ most furious moments.
A frosty moment
In 2019 Simon Cowell was left unimpressed when double act Katherine and Joe performed as Elsa and Sven from Frozen.
After their rendition, Simon commented: “I’m not being rude, but what the bloody hell was that?”
When Amanda disagreed, Simon told her: “I’m gonna leave it up to you.” He then stormed away from the panel.
Simon says
During the 2019 semi-finals, Simon was dragged into Jimmy Tamley’s ventriloquist act.
When Jimmy attempted to get Simon up to perform the can-can, he removed his ventriloquist mouth and walked off stage.
Furious viewers rushed to social media afterwards to brand the head judge “rude”.
Girls allowed
Amanda and Alesha were left furious in 2013 during dance act Pop’arazzi’s audition.
While Amanda said she found them “fascinating” and Alesha also complimented the group, Simon made snoring noises as the girls gave their feedback.
As they continued to clash over their opinions, Simon told them: “Maybe we’ve just reached that point where we’ve had enough of each other.”
Amanda and Alexa agreed and promptly stormed off.
What a drip
Amanda and Alesha once again joined forces to leave the panel in 2018.
The furious women stormed off when their dresses were ruined during Marty Putz’s audition.
Amanda and Alesha were pelted with liquid and toilet paper before deciding they’d had enough and removing themselves from the situation.
Goodbye David

Last year Bruno took over from David Walliams when he quit the show in 2022 after a decade on the panel.
It came after David was forced to apologise for foul-mouthed comments about contestants.
He called one a “c***” three times and mocked another during breaks in filming.
David said in a statement earlier this month: “I would like to apologise to the people I made disrespectful comments about during breaks in filming for Britain’s Got Talent in 2020.
“These were private conversations and – like most conversations with friends – were never intended to be shared. Nevertheless, I am sorry.”
