Britain’s Got Talent is back for another year and those auditioning will be looking to take home the top prize but what is it?
While being named the 2024 winner of Britain’s Got Talent is a great achievement, winners also get two prizes.
Celebrity judges singer Alesha Dixon, former Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli, radio presenter Amanda Holden and head judge Simon Cowell will all return to the judging panel.
Hosts Ant and Dec will also return to the ITV show following the end of their popular Saturday Night Takeaway show which has ended for now after 20 years.
