Hit series Britain's Got Talent has been removed from the schedules on Saturday night to make way for the Six Nations Live match on ITV1. Fans tuning in to see the latest instalment of the talent show hosted by Ant and Dec will instead be treated to live coverage of the France v Scotland rugby union final being held at the Stade de France. The kick off is at 8pm, with ITV's coverage beginning at 7.15pm, when Britain's Got Talent usually airs. The talent show will return next week, following last Saturday's episode that saw the show being branded 'fake' by fans following an act in which Simon Cowell said he was left 'fearing for his life' during a bizarre audition. Producers intervened when contestant Kranthi Drillman, wielding a sledgehammer, ignored Simon’s desperate pleas to stop. Kranthi had instructed Simon to lie on stage in an angel position, surrounding him with watermelons and coconuts. He then blindfolded himself and began smashing the fruit wildly, continuing even when the audience appeared uncomfortable. Simon later admitted he was genuinely worried for his safety during the act. However, many BGT viewers accused Kranthi of faking his intense performance. Fans claim to have spotted the secret behind his act, suggesting that his blindfold was actually see-through. One user wrote on X, formerly Twitter : "Obviously see through the blindfold." Whilst another echoed: "He could obviously see through the scarf and he thinks he’s won." A third penned: "You can tell the coconuts and the watermelons have been weakened and you could tell he could clearly see what he was doing when Simon was laid down." A fourth wrote: "There is no way that hammer swinging idiot could not see." Whilst a fifth said: "What a load of b******s! If that yoga teacher was totally blindfolded he wouldn't hit a coconut or watermelon every single time with 100% accuracy." A sixth said: "Yeah. He could see through the blindfold. Idiots, these people." One eagled eyed viewer claimed that Kranthi locked eyes with a crew member penning: "For anybody wondering if he could see through the blindfold or not (fairly obvious though) take a look at the end when the stagehand puts his hand up in front of his face to tell him to stop." During the dangerous act, Simon, who was advised to stay still, didn't listen and moved around, making the move extra risky. Alesha Dixon, 46, and Amanda Holden, 54, were keen for the act to stop as the sledgehammer landed centimetres from Simon's face. "I genuinely thought my days were numbered,” admitted Simon. So far in the new series there have been multiple acts who have received the Golden Buzzer, which guarantees a place in the semi final rounds of the talent show. Singer Vinnie McKee, impressionist Will Burns and singer Stacey Leadbeatter are all through to the live rounds that will be shown later this spring. Like this story?
