Britain's Got Talent has been cancelled this year, but it will return in 2022.

Filming was due to start this month but because of the pandemic and lockdown rules it was delayed.

Now the show's producers have confirmed that the recording and broadcast of the TV talent competition have been postponed until next year.

They said "safety has to come first" and that performers like dance groups, choirs and orchestras wouldn't be able to rehearse and audition safely.

Hundreds of people are involved in making the audition shows and acts often travel from all over the UK, and even abroad, to take part.

The auditions stage of the show also typically involve, a large audience, lots of crew and the judges Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, David Walliams and Amanda Holden.

The producers said: "Despite everyone at ITV, Thames and Syco doing their best to make it happen, and with our absolute priority of safeguarding the wellbeing and health of every person involved in the programme from judges, hosts and contestants to all of the crew and audience, the decision has been made to - unfortunately - move the record and broadcast of the 15th series of Britain's Got Talent to 2022."
