It also saw another hopeful make it through all the way to the live shows, thanks to one BGT judge pressing their golden buzzer.

Eleven-year-old Oliver left the judges and audience stunned with his electric guitar performance.

The crowd in the theatre started to chant in unison as they pressured one of the judges to press the golden buzzer after they gave the young lad a standing ovation.

After a few seconds Amanda stood back up as she firmly put both hands on the giant button on the judges desk.

But following the scenes, fans have slammed the constant chanting by the audience for the judges to press their golden buzzer – and called for bosses to step in.

Taking to a web forum, one viewer said: “Oh yeah, the idiots are chanting, decision made.”

A second wrote: “Rentamob with their usual push the button nonsense.”

“They’re inventing buzzers now. OK, so they probably deserved it more than most of the others but…,” said a third.

While a fourth commented: “The audience need to be told to shut up.”

Meanwhile, this week Britain’ Got Talent has been pulled off air in a major ITV schedule.

Due to Six Nations: France v Scotland airing instead, there will be no BGT on that day.

This marks the latest change in a series already experiencing shake-ups to the format.

YouTube star and professional boxer KSI has appeared as a guest judge so far.
