BRITAIN’S Got Talent bosses have found themselves facing another headache thanks to new judge Bruno Tonioli.
The announcement of his place on the panel has been mostly well-received but he has been causing chaos on set, mostly down to his larger than life personality.
Bruno has caused a technical nightmare on BGT
His antics have left bosses scratching their heads
A source has now told The Mirror that he is still causing problems for show bosses as a result of him constantly getting up from his seat.
Enthusiastic Bruno, 67, regularly launched up like a rocket from his chair on BBC show Strictly Come Dancing and it appears he is no different on the ITV rival.
But this has caused a technical blunder for crew on the show as he keeps going out of frame.
The insider told the Mirror: “Bruno is a little firecracker and constantly jumping up and down. The crowd loves it, Simon loves it… but the camera operators, less so.
“It’s an undertaking keeping up with him. He is up and down like a yo-yo.”
It comes after the dancer admitted he had never watched the show before and sent the show into disarray after pressing his golden buzzer for more than one act.
He had no idea the button, which sends hopefuls straight from audition to the live finals, could only be used once — and reacted to audience chants to send the incredible act through.
Producers were sent into a panic over whether to allow the contestant through, or to cancel Bruno’s over-excitable intervention — with show boss Simon Cowell locked in a heated discussion with the head of production company Fremantle over what to do.
Eventually, they sent the guy through.
A source said: “It was madness. The buzzer worked but there was no glitter in the cannon above the stage as it had already been used up.
“A producer raced over to try to tell Bruno he couldn’t do that.
Then there were discussions with the top execs and Simon, who had his head in his hands.
Then Bruno said he’d never actually watched before!
“Apparently it was because he didn’t want to be influenced by other shows’ judging styles.
“But he’s the big money new signing! Fortunately the audience love him and just laugh at his blundering.”
