Britain`s Got Talent is back with Britain`s Got Talent - The Champions, which kicked off on Saturday night.
The series will feature acts from past series of Britain`s Got Talent and its counterparts from other countries.
Each week, two acts will go through to the final - one "Golden Buzzer", chosen by the judges or Ant and Dec; and one chosen by superfans from various countries.
In the first programme, none of the former Britain`s Got Talent acts made it through to the final three.
The act which nabbed Amanda Holden`s Golden Buzzer was Kseniya Simonova – a former winner of Ukraine’s Got Talent, who makes stunning pictures and images using only sand.
The act voted through by the superfans was daredevil duo Bello and Annaliese Nock, who previously had appeared on America’s Got Talent.
I found the programme was an entertaining mix. I loved Kseniya`s stunning images and think she was a worthy winner.
In my opinion, if the talent of the two winning acts is anything to go by, this should be a thoroughably watchable and enjoyable series.
Did anyone else watch it? What did you think?

It would seem it might not be too bad. Wonder which act will get Aleisha`s Golden Buzzer?

BGT very confusing tonight. 2 acts appearing who weren't on the list ie Bars and Melody and American Comedian Vicky Barbalak (who was awful) Alesha had the Golden buzzer.
My favourites were Ben Hart and Alex Magalar.
Probably the worst episode tonight!

After last week`s fix, another disappointing show.
We had another American "comedian" who wasn`t funny; magician Ben Hart failed to equal his performance on BGT; and we had a very strange Russian "vocalist"...
In my opinion, Alesha gave the Golden Buzzer to the wrong act and why did the Superfans give a place in the final to that act?
The act which should have made it to the final was Alex the sword swallower.
As to the grand final next week, we might - if we are lucky - see the right result but I`m not counting on it...

BGT: The Champions - The Final is on ITV tomorrow [Saturday] night from 8.30-10.30pm.
The running order is not known at the moment, but the ten acts in the final are:
Kseniya Simonova - sand artist - Amanda`s Golden Buzzer week 1
Bello and Annaliese - daredevils - superfans` vote week 1
Alexa Lauvenberger - dog act - Ant & Dec`s Golden Buzzer week 2
MerseyGirls - dance group - superfans` vote week 2
Paddy & Nico - salsa pair - David`s Golden Buzzer week 3
Darcy Oake - magician - superfans` vote week 3
Stavros Flatley - comedy dance duo - Simon`s Golden Buzzer week 4
Preacher Lawson - comedian - superfans` vote week 4
Twist & Pulse - rap/dance duo - Alesha`s Golden Buzzer week 5
Bars & Melody - singers - superfans` vote week 5
In my opinion, Darcy should win it, and just hope neither Paddy & Nico nor Preacher Lawson win it.

Darcy Oakes gets my vote as well @Mi-Amigo
Talking about voting, will it be open to the public for the Final?

The show was pre-recorded a few weeks ago, so there won`t be a public phone-in/apps vote.
However, it seems to be unclear whether the final decision will be down to Simon, Amanda, Alesha and David and whether or not the supefans will also vote on the winner.
Added to this, it has been reported that Simon and Alesha [no Amanda because of her Heart Radio show] will be holding an America`s Got Talent - The Champions [with BGT winners/finalists taking part] later in the year; and Simon wants BGT The Champions to be an annual event [with speculation that the next one will feature Susan Boyle, Diversity and Attraction, the shadow making act].

Unbelievable!!! No public vote; no audience vote; no judges vote; just 250 superfans voted:
[edited for spolier]
More info
3rd place = Kysenyia [?] sand sculpter
2nd place = Stavros Flatley
1st place = Twist & Pulse
No mention of Darcy Oake; nothing for German dog act; nowt for the daredevils = the three acts which should have been the top three - with Darcy declared Champion - in my opinion....

Just going to put this under a spoiler
More info
I didn't agree with the final 3 at all. I think the sand artist tried to pull our heartstrings with her 'story' of Princess Diane. Stavros Flatley came 2nd and Twist and Pulse won.
My winners were Darcy Oakes and the lass with the dogs. Very disappointed.
