Britain's Got Talent 'to be harsh this year'

Britain's Got Talent is set to hit our screens again soon and fans will see that the audience - and judges - are expecting more from this series.

Following on from the success of Susan Boyle and dance act Diversity, who won the prize to perform for the Queen at the Royal Variety Show last series, the audience want more, according to Ant McPartlin.

"The audiences were really harsh this year, especially in Glasgow! They were quite volatile there with no patience," said the host, who is back to present again this year with Declan Donnelley.

Some of the acts that are set to appear in the coming weeks include a dance group that wear all in one suits that cover their faces and a football playing dog.

The contestants in this series may be hoping that they can replicate the amazing success enjoyed by Susan Boyle across the world, with reports recently stating that even the rapper Snoop Dogg is a fan and would love to record a duet with the Scottish singer.
