Britain’s Got Talent fans left baffled when popular act fails to appear on live semi-final – as they plead ‘what’s going on?’

Britain’s Got Talent fans were left scratching their heads when a popular act failed to perform on the live show once again on Saturday. 

Judge Simon Cowell looked less than impressed by the initial chaos when the introduction for child musician Teddy Magic played, but the youngster, aged eight, failed to appear on the stage last Saturday. 

In a bid to give an explanation for the absence, Ant and Dec pointed out the fact that Teddy is just eight, with Dec joking that Teddy wasn’t ready. 

It was then announced that Teddy, who impressed the judges with his magic act, would be appearing in a later live show. 

Fans were quick to take to social media to question Teddy’s absence from the semi-final, which could see him win a spot at the Royal Variety Show and audience that includes the royal family. 

Taking to Twitter/X, one fan wrote: ‘I hope little Teddy was ok. I think children should only be able to apply age 11+.

During Teddy’s disappearance, Ant and Dec tried to fill the gap by once again talking about the first act even though their performance had already been discussed. 

The youngster’s continued absence on last night’s show came on an episode where Ant and Dec made a shock revelation – the golden buzzer does not work.

In the semi-finals, it can be used to immediately put an act through to the grand finale. 

The revelation came amid audience pressure to put guitarist Olly Pearson, 11, through to the final. 

Simon said: ‘I don’t have another one, I could try.’ 

Ant then explained that the buzzer had been ‘disabled’ before Dec added: ‘It’s a lovely idea, but if you press it, nothing happens.’
