BGT fans 'cry and want to throw up' over 'disgusting' act as horrified crowd boos

Britain's Got Talent viewers were so sickened by an act tonight that they were left "crying and gagging" as they desperately reached for the remote control.

The ITV show returned tonight for its first live semi-final - but comedian Ichikawa Koikuchi certainly did not impress fans with his supposedly funny comedy act.

Sitting on a table in front of a packed BGT audience, Ichikawa fumbled with his trousers and let out a series of farts.

One by one, the judges began to press their buzzers as the crowed furiously booed the act.

Disgusted viewers flocked to Twitter to share their horror, with one writing: "this is horrible and so incredibly awkward to watch i want to cry #bgt."

While another commented: "Am I really sitting watching a lad s*** himself on tv with a string quartet & ballerina in the background."

A third fumed: "That farting act made me feel sick!! #BGT."

Among others performing tonight included Gamal John, 36, who wowed the judges with his rendition of James Brown classic It's A Man's Man's World.

Judge Bruno Tonioli was so enthralled by the audition that he whacked his golden buzzer, prompting gold confetti to rain on the stage.

Meanwhile 27-year-old Musa Motha earned a special golden buzzer from the whole panel after wowing with his incredible dance routine.

The dancer, who in his audition explained that he had his leg amputated after being diagnosed with cancer, performed a stunning contemporary routine to Runnin’ (Lose It All) by Naughty Boy ft. Beyoncé & Arrow Benjamin.

“That was one of the most extraordinary auditions I think I’ve ever seen on this show. I’ve so much admiration for you, what you’ve been through," Alesha gushed.

While Bruno added at the time: "That was exceptional!”

Also competing in tonight's line-up was illusionist Enzo Weyne, ukelele musician and school teacher Abi Carter-Simpson, sunbed receptionist-turned-singer Amy Lou, the Parkour Collective and ballroom and Latin group United 2 Dance (KLA).

All the acts are competing for a chance at winning a life-changing £250,000 and a spot on the Royal Variety Show.
