concept
The concept remained the same in the tenth season as in previous years.
People of all ages can take part in the show. People can appear individually or in a group. The candidates appear in front of the jury and the audience with a program of their choice, such as singing or a dance performance. The judges can operate a red buzzer during the performance to indicate that they do not like the performance. If all jurors have activated the buzzer, the candidate must stop his presentation. At the end of the performance, the jurors rate the candidate with a Yes or No. If the candidate has received a yes from at least two of the jurors, he may appear again in the next round. In the eighth season, the so-called Golden Buzzer was introduced. If this is activated by a jury member, the act concerned immediately qualifies for the semifinals. The golden buzzer can only be pressed once per judge in a season.
At the beginning of the show there are recorded auditions in which the jurors decide on the progress of the candidates. In the last episode before the live shows it will be announced which acts have qualified for the semifinals. Later the viewer can vote on the qualifiers for the final, which takes place on the Sunday of the same week, in live broadcasts, which are broadcast from Monday to Friday. Here the audience can determine the winner of the show. The winner of the show will receive £ 250,000 in prize money and will be allowed to appear in the Royal Variety Performance.
