Alesha Dixon admitted she was less than impressed by The Witch's return to Britain's Got Talent for a magic special.
The judge is back on the panel for a very special version of the ITV talent show, as some of the most popular magicians return to take on some other magicians for Britain’s Got Talent: The Ultimate Magician.
The special episode will air on Sunday 18 December and as part of the episode, The Witch will be back for a new terrifying routine after scaring Alesha Dixon and making her run off stage during his last appearance on the ITV programme.
Speaking about The Witch's return, Alesha shared: "There was one act in particular that I wasn’t happy to see. That was The Witch. I'm not a fan. I'm not a fan at all! There are certain things that I just don’t like.
"The danger acts and anything that is about making you scared or jump or creepy crawlies, I'm just not down for it. I'm sure it's entertaining for people watching at home. The Witch himself is a real character and very entertaining."
Amanda Holden also admitted she wasn't a fan of The Witch being back either.
"Yeah, and it was even worse than the last time because The Witch had a sidekick, a young girl. When children are in horror movies or dolls come to life in horror movies, that always scares me," she revealed.
"So they had a sidekick, a beautiful but scary looking child who did such an amazing job, she just did not crack throughout. I think that kind of ghostly innocence is always pretty horrific to watch in a horror film and it's even worse when you've got it in the flesh right in front of you because she's just sort of staring at you with glass cold eyes."
She added: "I’m sure she's absolutely a gorgeous girl, she's probably only my Hollie's age, but I was like, 'oh my God, this is awful!' It’s like being in an episode of Stranger Things. It's so bizarre."
David Walliams said he was "genuinely" horrified by The Witch's return - and their scary act.
"The Witch came on again, which was quite something. It's things that are done to us, really, whether we like it or not! So that was interesting. The audience really liked The Witch, I think they like to see us scared out of our wits!" he added.
"It's genuinely freaky. It's not just like it's a little bit scary, and we're kind of acting up. It is genuinely horrifying! They're one of the acts that people were really talking about after the last series of BGT. So it's kind of great to see them back. It was really freaky."
*Britain’s Got Talent: The Ultimate Magician will air on Sunday 18 th December at 8pm on ITV1.
