ITV BGT embroiled in another 'fix' row as viewers left infuriated with 'shocking' magic act: 'This is set up'
The magic act didn't sit well with the viewers
ITV
Britain's Got Talent viewers were once again left furious and disappointed with the ITV talent show as they claimed Magician Assemble act was "fixed" due to the ease of picking audience members.
The group took to the stage to begin their act and presented the judges with "wishes", including all the money in the world and to turn back time - making small jokes toward Simon Cowell.
Moving off of the main stage, the group noted how they could make any wish come true and asked a random audience member to make any wish - before relaying to her that she wished to go to Barcelona.
Their colleague asked Bruno Tonioli to open the envelope, where he pulled out a ticket to the part of Spain and left him speechless that they managed to predict the holiday destination.
The next magic act consisted of helping one young audience member "fly", but this quickly irked the viewers at home and prompted them to take to their X account to complain.
One furious user commented: "Bruno was already acting shocked before opening the envelope..."

"Oh look they've chosen someone who is right at the front on the aisle," one insisted before a third penned: "We already know Simon’s in on this act. This act is such a fix."
"See this stuff I don’t buy," someone else fumed as a fifth agitatedly wrote: "Pick a random person in the audience.... just happens to be who he's stood in front of ... load of c**p."
A sixth expressed: "Bruno saying 'OMG, I can’t believe this' before he even knows what’s in the envelope shows how 'let’s act up to the camera' he is…"
"You can tell how set up this is," one agreed. (sic)

The fan complaints come soon after they accused K-Pop group Blitzers of miming throughout their performance during the second semi-final last night.
The group - aged between 19 and 22 - revealed they are the first ever K-pop group to appear on the ITV talent show, and blew the audience and viewers at home away.
Fans of the show were further enraged when they found out the group were already famous across the pond and had already won a multitude of awards.
The South Korean artists shared they released five singles and won awards after they formed in 2021, and in the same year won the Focus Award at the Asia Artist Awards and in 2022 they got the Rising Star Gong at the K-Global Heart Dream Awards.
