It's golden buzzers all round as Britain's Got Talent is back for a brand-new series.

The show returns to ITV this weekend and will see a whole new range of acts compete for a £250,000 prize and the chance to play the Royal Variety Performance.

Here's all you need to know ahead of BGT's 17th series.

If you were to enter, what would your performance be? And who would you like to see in the final?

Let us know in the comments!

What time is Britain's Got Talent on?

Britain's Got Talent starts at 7:30pm on Saturday, 20 April on ITV1 and ITVX.

The first shows are all about the auditions, with members of the public performing in front of the judges for a chance to appear on the live shows later in the series.

Fans of BGT will get a double dose of auditions this weekend, as the second episode drops the very next day on Sunday, 21 April at 7:40pm.

Who are the judges?

The 2023 line-up of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli are back for another series.

Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno was new to the panel last year after replacing author David Walliams, who left BGT following the 2022 shows.

Who will be presenting?

Of course, it's Saturday night favourites Ant and Dec who'll be hosting the show again, having presented every series since BGT first aired in 2007.

The duo are no strangers to our screens this year.

Last weekend they hosted the final episode of Saturday Night Takeaway, with the pair announcing that they were taking a break from the series to focus on shows like Britain's Got Talent.

Who won Britain's Got Talent 2023?

Last year Norwegian comedian Viggo Venn was crowned champion - you might recognise him from his signature high-vis jacket!

He impressed the judges and won the public vote, beating 13-year-old dancer Lilliana Clifton, and 14-year-old magician Cillian O'Connor.

When is the final?

No dates have been revealed for the BGT final just yet - but for both the 2022 and 2023 series, the grand final took place in early June.
