Britain’s Got Talent viewers were left fuming after a jaw-dropping magician act was ‘robbed’ of the Golden Buzzer during Saturday night’s episode.
Eden Choi stunned judges Amanda Holden, Simon Cowell, Bruno Tonioli and Alesha Dixon with his phenomenal skills.
Fans branded the performance ‘mesmerising’ and ‘thrilling’ as he took to the stage with his show-stopping act.
But some were left annoyed as they pointed out he was more ‘deserving’ of the Golden Buzzer compared to previous auditions.
Some wrote on X: ‘Now that magician was fabulous…. i could watch that time and time ago to just try and work out how he does it…. #BGT’,
‘Now THAT was the audition that deserved all the Golden buzzers. Instead they give them out willy nilly at the beginning to acts who don’t even deserve them’,

The 33-year-old shared: ‘My adoptive mum went to one of Prince Charles’ garden parties at Highgrove.
‘She showed the now-King a picture of me in the orphanage that she kept in a bible. It would almost be like coming full circle. Playing for the King would be such an honour.’
Born in Romania, Cornel’s birth parents were forced to give him up due to the difficult circumstances there.
Aid workers Ken and Doreen Munn brought him to the UK for treatment when he was 18 months old, eventually adopting him.
Cornel joined their four other children in the Worcester family, and he said of his early life: ‘I’m so grateful to my biological parents as well as my adopted ones.
‘There’s no ill feeling. quite the opposite. They let their child go and have great opportunities.’
In 2004, Cornel was awarded the Mirror Pride of Britain Child of Courage Award, which was presented by Carol Vorderman.
Overcoming adversity, Cornel started playing drums at age 11 by strapping sticks to his upper arms.
