Alesha Dixon and David Walliams reflected on their time together on the Britain's Got Talent panel, before his exit after 10 years in 2022
-
Britain's Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon and her former co-star David Walliams have addressed a humorous argument they had, when they sat alongside each other on the show's panel.
David, 53, was a judge on the show alongside Alesha, 46, Amanda Holden, 54, and Simon Cowell, 65, up until his departure after 10 years in 2022.
As the latest guest on his podcast, Making A Scene with Matt Lucas and David Walliams, the pair reflected on the memories they shared.
While Alesha described the four judges' time together as "special", she discussed confronting David after he made a joke about her miming.
In a conversation about her music career, he said: "We had an argument once on Britain's Got Talent, but not really an argument, you just poured a glass of water over my head, because I made a joke about you mining and you said, 'I never mime'.
"You said you never mime and then you said, 'Unless I was hungover and we were on breakfast television'."

David Walliams and Alesha Dixon reflected on their time together on Britain's Got Talent The former Misteeq singer turned solo star went on confirm that she did once mime during a performance on Good Morning Britain.
She explained: "I wasn't in Misteeq at the time, I was a solo artist and we were celebrating the end of a tour.
We had a big night out with all the crew, the dancers, and didn't sleep, literally went all night.
"And at 5.30am, my manager comes bursting through the door and goes, 'What are you doing? You're on Good Morning Britain in like two hours'.
"I was like 'Don't worry about it' and I literally rolled up to Good Morning Britain and I mimed the song."
In a further humorous swipe at his former co-star, he joked: "And you've mimed every time since."
David left the panel after it emerged that he made derogatory remarks about contestants, which he later apologised for.
He has since been replaced by former Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli.
While Alesha has loved having Bruno on board, she said of David being by her side: "I thought the four of us together were magic. I think that the 10 years we did together was special.
"I think that we were the best judging panel on telly, there you go, I said it."
Britain's Got Talent airs Saturday at 7.30pm on ITV and ITVX.
