Britain's Got Talent has returned to screens — and one act already has everybody talking.
Leeds based Will Burns said on the show he can 'die happy' after wowing Simon Cowell and the other Britain's Got Talent judges and being the first golden buzzer act of the new series.
'The impressionist tonight on Britains got talent @willburns was brilliant glad he’s got the golden buzzer in my opinion.

But not everyone was impressed, with another fan complaining that there's a lack of original talent on the show. They wrote, 'Dance troops seem to be the same, magic the same, comedians the same.
'I mean this impressionist isn't that good, he's ok but his Attenborough was shit! Golden ticket worthy?? Really? It is what it is.'

To which another replied, '#BGT teddy the kid Magician at the start, #KSI being on the show and the impressionist at the end 3 highlights from #BGT 2025 launch episode.... Rest ... Best forgotten.'
While another said, 'accidentally watching britains got talent at my parents & there’s an impressionist on who is *not* good.'
And another wrote, 'Will burns didn’t even recognise anyone!!!'
However there were plenty more compliments for impressionist WIll Burns, with another Britain's Got Talent viewer writing, 'Wow, how good was Will Burns on BGT tonight he really did deserve the golden buzzer, "I cannae see man" had me in stitches well done Will you were brilliant doing Yorkshire proud.'
