David Walliams has claimed that even acts who were previously "a bit snobby" about appearing on Britain’s Got Talent have now auditioned for the show following Covid-19 lockdowns.
The comic and author, 50, is part of the talent show's judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon.
He said the pandemic had been so tough on performers that many who used to look down on BGT, now thought "we need this".
