Bradley Walsh is guest judging at Britain's Got Talent Blackpool auditions while Simon Cowell recovers from back surgery.
Bradley Walsh has been announced as guest judge for Britain's Got Talent's Blackpool auditions, replacing Simon Cowell during filming. Cowell missed the event following a back operation. Walsh, 66, joined Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and KSI on the judging panel at Blackpool's Winter Gardens.
A source told The Sun that Walsh made a positive impression during his debut. 'He seemed a little nervous at first but soon looked like he'd been running the show for years,' the source said. 'He had Amanda in hysterics with his one-liners and even kept telling the audience off for shouting out while he was talking.' The source added that Walsh had brought 'a different energy to the panel' and been 'helping the acts get the best out of this opportunity' by drawing on his 40 years in entertainment.
Walsh was officially announced on Monday, October 12, with the other judges joking about his credentials in a video shared on the show's social media channels. Alesha Dixon remarked he was 'a table tennis world champion', while KSI claimed he had 'made a diss track' on him. Walsh later appeared on screen to correct their claims.
