Amanda Holden, Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams were back as usual to give their honest opinions of each performance. And it was criticism from David that had one audience member up in arms.

Matricks Illusion took to the stage as the first act of the night where they performed a big routine which saw them bring out a Simon Cowell lookalike.

Commenting on the act, David said he felt there were not enough tricks. A woman from the audience quickly shouted: "Wake up David!"

Taking to Twitter, ShakyWoon said: "An audience member [just said] 'Wake up' to David." Lidz said: "Imagine getting tickets to see #BGT live and being as rude as to shout at David Walliams from the audience."

Jay Baker said: "Wake up David [cry-laughing emoji]", while Danny James noticed it too, saying: "'Wake up David', the crowd shout!"
