There's going to be a big change in how the voting works on Britain's Got Talent this year.

In the live semi-finals for previous series, viewers have voted for their favourite acts and the two performers with the most votes have then gone through to the live grand final.

But this year, the decision as to who will make it to the final won't just be resting with viewers.

The act who receives the most viewer votes will still automatically be going through to the live final.

However, when the acts who placed second and third with viewers are revealed, it will then be down to judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams to pick which of these performers they want in the BGT final.
