Britain's Got Talent will air on ITV and ITVX every Saturday evening.

The Saturday night format is a change from previous years, with the show usually airing on Saturdays and Sundays – and the changes don't stop there!

The live semi-finals will now air weekly, rather than it being stripped across a week in May.

Lily Wilson, the Commissioning Editor for Entertainment at ITV, said of the format shake-up: "We want to hit that family audience. Starting in February means we can build excitement over a longer period while making the live semi-finals a much bigger event."

What time is Britain's Got Talent on tonight?

There is no episode of Britain's Got Talent tonight as the show will be missing from its usual slot in favour of the Six Nations match between France and Scotland.

There is no need to fret as the show will return next weekend on the 22nd.

Is Britain's Got Talent airing on a Sunday?
