Ant McPartlin storms off Britain's Got Talent as act's future hangs in the balance

Ant McPartlin was seen leaving the Britain's Got Talent set on Saturday night after becoming bored by an act desperately trying to stay on the show.

The ITV host, 47, used an unlikely getaway vehicle as he was filmed making his dramatic exit on a scooter.

Dog owner Olga was put on the spot during her audition after appearing on the show with her two pooches Bonnie and Simba.

Things seemed to be going well for the act as Olga managed to get one of her dogs on a scooter.

However, it all went downhill and soon became clear that the dog handler was struggling to get the animals to do what she wanted.

The audition ended with all of the judges hitting their buzzes.

Olga was desperate to stay in the competition and tried to convince the judges to give her another chance by claiming her dogs could also play the piano.

Judge Simon Cowell seemed willing to give the act another chance and asked: "If they really can play the piano, could you show us now?"

But Olga explained: "The piano is off, so there will be no sound."

Simon was shocked by her response and Ant had clearly become bored by the exchange.

Turning to his co-star Dec Donnelly, he said: "It's taking a while this isn't it? I'm just going to scoot," as he left the set on the scooter used during Olga's audition.

Eventually, Simon told Olga to come back another day if she wanted to prove her dogs could genuinely play the piano.

Fans shared their thoughts about Olga's audition on Twitter, with some saying she deserved to go through.

"To be fair, the dog on the scooter was enough for a golden buzzer in my eyes," one viewer wrote.

Another said: "One dog can’t wait to get on stage and the other coming out on the scooter."

However, someone else pointed out how the act went downhill: "With the dog coming on the scooter was good! But then it went pair shaped!"
