What time is Britain’s Got More Talent 2018 on ITV2 tonight and what is the spin off show presented by Stephen Mulhern?
WHAT’S better than Britain’s Got Talent? That’s right – even more talent.
ITV have been bringing you and extra dose of fun with Britain’s Got More Talent for an incredible 11 years with cheery frontman Stephen Mulhern bringing the hoots from backstage.
When does Britain's Got More Talent 2018 start on ITV2?
Britain’s Got More Talent airs on ITV2 immediately after Britain’s Got Talent goes out on ITV1.
The show is next on our screens once more on Saturday, May 26 at 9.15pm.
A promotional video for the spin-off show was released, featuring Stephen rapping.
It appeared that Ant and Dec had been scrapped from the video, despite appearing in the promotional film every year previously.
Stephen records a different video every year and is always joined by the four BGT judges as well as his close pals Ant and Dec.
But this year, the Geordie duo were noticeably absent from proceedings, most likely because of Ant's arrest for drink-driving and subsequent return to rehab.
However, the pair were referenced in Stephen's rap, which focused on him winning a TV Times Award for Best Digital Show.
Stephen - whose catchphrase is 'Unbelievable' - rapped: "Ant and Dec will have to lump it, while I play my trumpet."
What does Britain’s Got More Talent involve?
The show is a companion piece to Britain’s Got Talent.
Similarly to The Xtra Factor, it features interviews with contestants and behind-the-scenes footage.
Stephen Mulhern is often pictured in the wings of the BGT stage, commenting on performances and interviewing contestants before and after they audition.
Britain’s Got More Talent is also set to show Ant and Dec playing Wonky Donkey, the silly rhyming game from the duo’s SM:TV days.
However, it is unlikely that Ant will return for the live shows after he was arrested for drink-driving on March 18 and subsequently charged.
A statement from his publicist said he would be stepping down from TV commitments for the "foreseeable future" while he checks back into rehab.
Ant and Dec will still feature in the audition rounds which finished filming in February.
Dec will host the BGT live shows on his own, however, Ant will appear in the pre-recorded footage of the audition stages.
