Britain's Got Talent viewers spot HUGE editing error
Do our eyes deceive us 👀
Last updated 20th Apr 2022
The much loved talent show is officially back, with Britain's Got Talent returning to our screens on Saturday (16th April). But amid all of the excitement, including securing the first Golden Buzzer act of the series, fans spotted a pretty big editing blunder involving David Walliams, causing us all to do a double-take on Sunday's episode.
During the episode, David couldn't help but get involved as pensioner Joy Weir was cutting some serious shapes on stage, however as the judge appeared on stage, viewers could also see him sat in his usual seat.
Many fans were quick to spot the mistake, taking to Twitter to share their confusion.
Sharing a clip of the editing error, one viewer Tweeted: 'So David Walliams is walking up on stage, yet still sat in his seat watching Joy dancing? Two of him……'
In the short clip, viewers can clearly see the comedian up on stage, as well as sitting alongside his fellow judges Amanda Holden, Simon Cowell and Alesha Dixon.
Confused about what they were seeing, another fan tweeted: 'Wait a minute, who is that then? 😂 ', whilst another added: 'How is @davidwalliams walking up on the stage, but is still sitting in his chair? 🧐 who is that? 🤣' (sic), and one more joking: 'Didn't know David had a twin...'.
Well, that's certainly a talent David!
In other Britains Got Talent news, Saturday's episode (16th April) saw Amanda secure the series' first Golden Buzzer act, in the form of 32-year-old Loren Allred - an original vocalist from 2017's hit film The Greatest Showman.
The Pennsylvanian singer introduced herself as the vocalist behind the movie's hit track 'Never Enough', which, as fans of the film will know, Jenny Lind belts out while on tour with P.T. Barnum.
