Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli is set to join the Britain’s Got Talent panel as David Walliams ’ replacement, a move that has been secured by Simon Cowell.
ITV bosses reportedly initially had comedian Alan Carr down as their first choice for the show, however they were overruled when Simon had the final say on his close friend Bruno joining the panel.
The show’s other judges, Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden, were notified of Bruno joining the show in the last couple of days.
