“Britain's Got Talent” is a British television talent show competition which started in June 2007. The auditions take place in front of the judges and a live audience. At any time during the audition, the judges may stop the act by pressing a buzzer which lights a large red "X" on the stage. If all the judges press their buzzers, the act ends immediately. The judging panel give a "Yes" if they like them and would like them to return for the next show.
The show now has different versions in other countries like America, Australia, France...
