Britain’s Got Talent in ‘fix’ row as Davina McCall makes shock appearance in live semi-final

Britain’s Got Talent viewers were left floored after Davina McCall made an appearance during an act.

The ITV show returned to screens this weekend for the fourth semi-final of the series. Last week, saw singer Jasmine Rice and dance group Pong Pang bag a spot in the much-anticipated final.

And on Sunday (May 18), the next round of talent took to the stage, in a bid to impress judges Simon Cowell, Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli, as well as the live audience and those watching at home.

Those hoping to make it through to the final included acts like comedian Joseph Charm, singer Max Fox and dance group Obsequious. However, when it came to magician TK Magic - it seemed his performance left viewers divided.

During his act, he got Amanda to pick a number between one and six - in which she chose six. TK Magic then showed Amanda a list of people he thought she would have in her phone book - with Davina McCall next to number six.

Things then took an unexpected turn when the magician got Amanda Holden to FaceTime Davina McCall, with TK Magic claiming he knew she would pick up.

Like he said, Davina picked up the call leaving everyone floored. Amanda proclaimed: "There she is!" before showing everyone Davina on her phone screen. Amanda then gushed: "Hello gorgeous girl!"

After introducing himself to Davina, TK Magic continued with his act - with the help of Davina. But angry BGT fans couldn’t help but feel like the act was staged, as it entirely depended on Davina picking up the call.

A third person declared: “What are the chances that the magician TK got Amanda Holden to phone her best mate, that she went to visit after a surgery, AT RANDOM, to participate in the magic act. Sitting in her dressing room all dolled up, by chance. Sack this s**t off, and those that believe it.”

Someone else chimed in: "Davina sat with a full face of make up and hair done as well as being dressed up and chilling in a chair almost waiting for that call on a Sunday night is a bit suspicious."
