BGT went over by two minutes following a blackout caused by bad weather, leaving soap fans to stew as they waited anxiously for their programme.
They headed to Twitter to moan and they got an apology to Dec.
The presenter, who was hosting solo without Ant McPartlin for the first time, ended the show by offering a heart-felt sorry to soap fans.
He said: "Stay tuned for Corrie. It's alightly later tonight at five past nine so apologies for that.
"Gary and Joe want revenge on Pat Phelan - and why wouldn't they, eh?"
Viewers who were eagerly awaiting the return of soap villain Phelan griped about the delay.
One wrote: "#Corrie was meant to be on at 9PM, not the first BGT has done this!"
Another added: "Not to be over dramatic or anything but #Corrie should of started 2 minutes ago & BGT is still on, fgs."
A third tweeted: "#BritainsGotTalent where’s me #Corrie?! 😂."

It was also Dec's first time presenting the show without Ant after he pulled out of all his TV work following his drink-drive shame.
