BGT viewers 'switch off' minutes in after ITV show interrupted amid furious complaint

fans were less than pleased after the show sparked a "fix" row on Saturday night. It comes after one audience member interrupted the show to get on stage. Judges , 65, , 54, , 46, and guest panellist KSI, 31, were left baffled by the outburst and were convinced it was a production set up.

During the final rounds of auditions, singer Max Fox stunned audiences when he shouted and pleaded with the judges to get on stage. He explained that he had tried to audition for 19 years but had never got through and begged Simon for a chance to take to the stage and person.

Max pleaded: "Can you give me one opportunity? I can show you what I've got."

The outburst caused visible confusion on the panel and Simon stood up and asked: "Come here, are you serious? Hang on, is this a wind-up?"

As Max attempted to get on stage security quickly intervened but Simon insisted they let him through.

A crew member responded: "He can't just go on now we need to get a track. We'll get his track and sort him out."

Some viewers took to social media and complained about the awkward moment as one claimed: "Max was good but not brilliant and definitely NOT Golden Buzzer worthy. Sorry not sorry!!! Such a setup! The Golden Buzzer has lost its purpose and now it'll be used in the Semi Finals too. #BGT"

A second fumed: "Golden buzzer doesn't mean anything anymore, about time they got rid of it altogether #bgt."

A third complained: "The producers think we are stupid as if he waited 19 years! #BGT." While another said: "I'm turning off."

Others defended the moment as one mused: "Maybe your right but it was a lovely story."

A second added: "Just believe Jack! The world becomes a nicer place."

The show continued with the scheduled auditions, but Max eventually returned to the stage - this time as a contestant as he ended the auditions with his surprise show as Simon insisted it was not a set up.

Max wowed the audience with his rendition of Frank Sinatra's My Way, earning him a standing ovation.

The audience continued to chant for the Golden Buzzer - and Amanda didn't hesitate in clicking the button.
