Amanda Holden is left seriously spooked by an 'invisible' act during the Britain's Got Talent auditions, after being ordered on stage to be part of the performance.
After a near two year hiatus, with it cancelled completely last year, the much loved ITV programme is finally back this weekend, with a double header of audition shows on both Saturday and Sunday. Teaser videos for the new series, as well as showing hosts Ant and Dec dragging an contestant off stage, featured Amanda looking startled by something.
And that something could well be mysterious act The Phantom. A serious chill is sent through the Britain's Got Talent auditorium when the act, who can't be seen by the judges or the audience, starts talking in a rather sinister tone, before panicking Amanda by making her part of the act, as co-star shouts: "Why is it always you?!"

The preview clip for the scary audition sees a terrified Amanda sat on stage clutching a red balloon, as the Phantom says: "Balloons are the first thing we learn to lose. Like the child that lose this balloon earlier today." He continues: "They thought it was a gust of wind. It wasn't. It was me, I stole it."
As Amanda stares at the balloon looking increasingly worried, it bursts, prompting Simon Cowell to sit back in his seat as the Phantom lets out a menacing laugh. The act then adds: "You might think it was rather mean to burst a balloon like that. But losing things is an important part of life."
The Phantom then instructs Amanda to take an item from the lost property box next to her, as she looks fearful of what might be to come. To see the drama unfold tune into Britain's Got Talent at 8pm on Saturday night and 7.30pm on Sunday.
