Britain's Got Talent newcomer Bruno Tonioli called the show "torture" on more than one occasion during the opening episode of the 2023 series.
After a series of baffling acts, Bruno confessed he had no idea what was going on.
The former Strictly Come Dancing judge was left visibly confused and unimpressed as a number of acts, especially those at the start of his BGT journey, failed to get his backing.
First up there was Darth Vader playing a selection of Star Wars themed music on the keyboard, and none of it was in tune.
Bruno pressed his buzzer along with the other judges, but in the end Amanda Holden had to press Simon Cowell's for him.
As it finally came to an end, Bruno turned to Alesha Dixon and said: "Please…Oh darling, the torture."
He then asked: "I am speechless... What is going on? I really haven't got a clue."
It's then that Simon revealed his horror at the initial acts, especially with it being Bruno's first appearance as the new judge.
He told him: "I feel quite embarrassed actually Bruno, this is the first act," with Bruno later adding: "Isn’t this show completely bonkers? It's just insane."
Alesha quipped at the fact that it was all part of the show, but unfortunately the "torture" didn't end there for Bruno.
Towards the end of the launch episode, comedian Ichikawa Koikuchi headed on stage to perform a series of 'wind' tricks.
From blowing out candles to playing instruments, the auditionee stunned the audience and the judges as his act consisted of him farting into a pipe.
Amanda was clearly amused and even sang along at one moment, while Simon couldn't help but laugh.
Bruno was having none of it though, clearly not impressed with the 'talent' as he once again said: "Oh, it's torture."
It comes as Bruno made his big debut on the show, following former judge David Walliams quitting the series.
David's exit was revealed in November 2022, ahead of auditions being filmed from January onwards.
"David has decided to bow out after a ten-year run. He wants to leave on a high after a wonderful time," an insider told The Sun at the time.
"Being on the show has been a huge source of entertainment and joy for him and he is arguably the most popular member of the panel.”
A source close to the judge said: “David has decided to bow out after a ten-year run. He wants to leave on a high after a wonderful time.”
Recently, Simon failed to confirm if David was returning for the latest series of the hit talent show.
"Ask me in a few weeks," he responded when quizzed on the matter.
Simon went on to insinuate that the current judging panel is not 'vital' for the show's success.
"For me the most important thing is the talent. It’s always about that. If you don’t have great talent, you don’t have a show. That’s all I care about," Simon told Daily Star.
Britain's Got Talent airs this Saturday at 8PM and Sunday at 7:45PM on ITV1 and ITV X.
