According to major media reports, a member of the Britain's Got Talent judging panel was left injured on Saturday night's show. The injury occurred during a scuffle between judges Simon Cowell and Alesha Dixon over pressing the Golden Buzzer for Ukrainian video game troupe Antigravity, who performed a stunning showcase of live-action gaming. The exact nature of the scuffle and the specific injury suffered by the panel member have not been disclosed.
A video replay verified that Alesha Dixon pressed the Golden Buzzer first for Antigravity. During the altercation, Amanda Holden's microphone was broken. ' Alesha Dixon elaborated on the incident, saying, 'Simon had been winding me up so much and we were having back-and-forth banter, he was on one, and I saw him go to press it and thought, he ain't having it!
' She added, 'It is definitely the most physical golden buzzer I've ever done on the show! ' Antigravity received the third Golden Buzzer on Saturday night (March 7) for their 'real-life video game' audition. The judges agreed Antigravity's performance was one of the best in the show's 19-year history and the first of its kind.
Alesha Dixon described Antigravity as 'great' and said she pressed the buzzer more for her 12-year-old daughter than herself. ' She also noted, 'Cause they did something we've never seen before on our show, which we always love. ' Antigravity said, 'It's incredible.
' Britain's Got Talent returned for a 19th series last month on February 21. The show offers a £250,000 cash prize and an appearance at the Royal Variety Performance. Judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and KSI are back for another season, along with hosts Ant and Dec.
The 2026 edition of BGT has seen three Golden Buzzers awarded so far, but the timeline and outcome of Golden Buzzer awards beyond these three acts are not yet clear. Australian para athlete Paul Nunnari (wheelchair stunts) received a Golden Buzzer from Simon Cowell on February 21, marking Cowell's first time pressing the Golden Buzzer. On February 28, 16-year-old magician Rafferty Coope received a Golden Buzzer from KSI.
Audiences were impressed by Antigravity's performance, with positive comments on social media. How audiences and judges reacted in real-time during Antigravity's performance has not been detailed. The exact nature of Antigravity's 'real-life video game' performance remains unspecified.
