Fuming BGT viewers all have the same complaint about the Phantom’s ‘pointless’ semi-final performance

BRITAIN'S Got Talent viewers were baffled by creepy Phantom's "pointless" semi-final performance.

The invisible ghost act returned to tonight's live show to impress the judges with another terrifying performance.

Phantom enlisted the help of David Walliams and Amanda Holden - and asked them to come on stage to take part in the scary illusions.

The judges followed a series of instructions - including looking at themselves in a mirror, with Amanda instructed by the Phantom to read David's mind and tell viewers what she could see.

The Phantom said: "Amanda - David is thinking of a memory, what is it?"

Amanda replied: "I can see water, I can see an accident - I think David's in a girl guide outfit...no it's the cub.

"I think David fell in some water, David fell into a river dressed up as a cub."

The Phantom told David to take two pieces of paper from a box, which read: "David you can't see me, you'll never see me, but I'm always right here."

The mystery contestant then pressed David's buzzer leaving him spooked.

However, fans were confused that the big reveal never happened, with David only revealing that Amanda was correct once the judges had returned to their seat.

One wrote: "The Phantom act was pointless...why didn't they reveal it before the act was over? #BGT"

Another posted: "Thank goodness that the silly Phantom act didn't get through. It made no sense tonight. #BGT"

A third added: "Phantom wasn't great tonight, David should have been able to say if Amanda was correct or not before they got back to their seats. #BritainsGotTalent"

Unfortunately Phantom's time on the talent competition was over after narrowly missing out on a place in the final.

Fans have previously racked their brains to try and figure out who the the unseen act is.

Many took to Twitter to discuss - and think it could be 49-year-old Marc Spelmann.

One wrote: "Watched #BGT #BritainsGotTalent from last night - does anyone else think that #ThePhantom could be Marc Spellman again??"

Another said: "I’ll put money on the creepy magician being Spellman, back again #BGT."

A third chimed in: "Do you think that the Phantom is that X guy/ Spellman from a couple of years ago!?"

A fourth questioned: Is the phantom Marc Spelman?? #BritainsGotTalent"

Marc Spelmann is a magician who he has appeared on the show once as himself in 2018, and again as Magician X the following year.

The illusionist ended up in the semi-finals during the 12th series of the show four years ago.

He was Ant and Dec's Golden Buzzer pick.

The series was won by stand-up comedian Lost Voice Guy.

Then in 2019 he appeared on the show again as X.

The illusionist's identity was a closely-guarded secret with him not even performing his full act during rehearsals to avoid anyone discovering who he was.

Marc, who placed second in the competition, was beaten to the top spot by 89-year-old singer Colin Thackery.
