List of episodes

The sixteenth series of British talent competition programme Britain's Got Talent began on ITV1 from 15 April 2023, and is again presented by Ant & Dec. For the first time since 2012, the judging panel changed following David Walliams's resignation from the series after ill-received comments made about several contestants during series 14. On 24 January 2023, ITV announced that Bruno Tonioli would serve as his replacement.

The sixteenth series was won by comedian Viggo Venn, with dancer Lillianna Clifton finishing in second place.

Judges for Britain's Got Talent Series 16

Series overview

Following the conclusion of the previous series, it was announced that the show would return for a sixteenth series. In 2022, it was reported that David Walliams would be leaving the show after ten series, and in January 2023, Bruno Tonioli was announced as his replacement. Cowell also announced that he gave a total of 2 golden buzzers this year, in a change to the format. Tonioli also did the same, and admitted he had never watched the show before. He pressed his first Golden Buzzer at the very first taping in London, halfway through the act, something which had never been done in the franchise before. Following Cowell and Tonioli's extra golden buzzer acts, all four judges collectively pressed the golden buzzer in the final auditions episode, resulting in a total of eight golden buzzer acts.
