Following this weekend’s live semi-final of Britain’s Got Talent, fans of the show have swarmed to social media to demand one judge is sacked.
They have called for the axing of Strictly Come Dancing star Bruno Tonioli, who marks his third season as a judge on BGT this year.
Dissatisfied audiences online suggest that Bruno’s ‘over the top’ performances are making the show ‘all about him’.
They are labelling him ‘insufferable’ and ‘annoying’, suggesting that the intermittently appearing judge, KSI, should replace Tonioli full-time.
The 31-year-old YouTube star has appeared as a guest judge several times across season 18, filling in absences for other judges where necessary.
He was signed to the show in a bid to attract younger viewers, but seems to have become a fan favourite over the course of his time onscreen.

‘Anyone want Bruno replaced with KSI permanently or is it just me? Bloke does my absolute head in,’ said another.
‘Would rather be seeing KSI on the judging panel every week over Bruno,’ Penned a third.
‘Has anyone else stopped watching BGT because of Bruno Tonioli? The man is annoying.’
‘Sit down, Bruno stop making it about you.’
‘Someone tell Bruno to stop playing it up to the cameras every single time an act is on and they mention him’
‘Bruno is the worst judge ever, the new format with the golden buzzer is woeful and the talent is average at best. That’s a couple of hours of my life I can’t get back’
Criticism of the 69-year-old comes after allegations this weekend that BGT is ‘fixed’ with the new golden buzzer rule that allows it to be pressed in the live semi-final.

The live semi-final saw child guitarist Olly Pearson through to the final with Simon Cowell’s golden buzzer.
Singer Stacey Leadbetter will join him after receiving the highest count of votes from the public.
With BGT viewing figures down for the second year running, fans’ eyes are on boss Simon Cowell to make some changes.
