Absolutely dire when the standout is just some average busker who people are kidding is the next 'big thing'.

What's worse, hasn't the winning act usually been featured in the first episode each year?
This is the thing, every show opens with a bang. Have a look at The Cube, whoever starts always gets a load of money. they want to open with a winner! and if a busker with a guitar is as good as it gets, then the rest of the series is going to be very poor.
I read that the producers were actively encouraging known acts on the entertainment circuit to audition because the talent level was so poor this year.
If the bell ringers were as good as it gets we probably have.
Spelbound featured on the second episode last year. i'm pretty sure Diversity didn't feature until we were a few auditions in either. Same with George Sampson if I recall.
Come on people, it's been 1 show. There's plenty more time for other talented acts to be made known for us. As I recall, episode 1 last year was dire, but we had a not-too-bad final.
Kieran Gaffney
Tina and Chandi
Tobias Mead
And that's including the third place winner, Kieran.
If there were three prospective finalists in Saturday night's show, BGT is in big trouble.
Thanks, ILD. I was a fan of Tobias. I thought he deserved a top 3 placement last series.
Of the acts on opening night this year, no one compared to the comparable bill last year except the dogs act. And that was basically Tina and Chandi x 2.
