BGT viewers puzzled over editing blunder as David spotted in two places at once

Britain's Got Talent appeared to air an editing blunder this weekend, and it didn't go unnoticed by ITV viewers.

Judge David Walliams was seemingly shown in two places at once, all in the same scene during the latest round of auditions.

David had left his seat on the panel to join a lady named Joy on the stage, wanting to be a part of her act.

But as he left the desk and made his way up the steps, viewers noticed someone was sat in his seat - and the person looked identical to David.

The fact David was still in his chair and making his way on to the stage at the same time was obviously impossible - but the scene showed him apparently in two places at once.

As Joy began dancing across the stage, the crowd cheered her on - while judge Simon Cowell was not keen on the act, calling it "terrible".

David disagreed though, and he soon raced up to join her and began dancing alongside her.

But fans were puzzled and a little freaked out to notice him both on the stage and in his seat which he had left moments earlier.

The show did not address the mishap and it didn't look like anyone else other than the judge himself - leading to fans questioning if David had a secret twin.

Taking to Twitter after spotting the bizarre moment, viewers questioned what had happened and if anyone else had noticed the mistake.

One fan wrote: "So David Walliams is walking up on stage, yet still sat in his seat watching Joy dancing? Two of him……"

Another added: "David Walliams has duplicated on @BGT! [He’s sat with the judges on the left and he’s also walking onto the stage on the right] The act was a dancer, not a magician!"

A third viewer asked: "How can @davidwalliams be in 2 places at the same time?" as a fourth joked: "Didn't know David had a twin #BGT ... David in his seat and David on the stage."

The comments kept on coming too, with another reading: "Oops! Are we seeing things David on stage AND in his chair at the same time??"

Another said: "I'm late to the party on this, but due to an editing error, David Walliams literally appeared in two places at once on Sunday's #BGT. Behind the desk and getting up on stage."
