Amanda Holden screams and storms off Britain's Got Talent set over unwanted guest

Amanda Holden was not impressed by one contestant as Britain's Got Talent returns to our screens.

In a trailer for a new spin-off - Britain’s Got Talent : The Magicians - Amanda was seen yelling as the terrifying Witch act returned.

A chaotic first look at the special episode, hosted by magician Stephen Mulhern, shows fellow judge Alesha Dixon reading a poem from the Witch while the creepy character watches on. As she reads out loud, strange things start happening and Amanda just can't hack it.

In the clip Alesha says: "It was a dark and strange night in the forest. There was a stench of mould and decay in the air from David's rotten fruit." The box of fruit in front of David Walliams is then shown to be riddled with worms.

At that point a young girl looking like Red Riding Hood lifts down her hood to reveal an old witch-like woman on-stage. When she held a teddy bear, she pulled the midsection apart to encounter a snake - and it was this which proved to be the final straw for the 51-year-old, who is also a Heart Radio FM presenter.

Amanda began yelling and screaming as she jumped out of her seat and headed off set. She squealed: "I hate snakes, I hate snakes!"

Britain's Got Talent: The Ultimate Magician will air on December 18 at 8pm on ITV1.
