Britain's Got Talent is one of the most successful talent shows ever broadcast. Anyone of any age with any sort of talent can audition for the show. Acts compete against each other in order to gain audience support. The winner receives a cash prize of £500.000 (approximately €750.000) and is given the opportunity to perform in the Royal Variety Performance in front of members of the British Royal family, including Queen Elizabeth II. The final usually gets more than 50% of audience share, which makes this competition more popular than other well-known talent shows such as The X Factor or The Voice.
Watch below a selection of some of the most popular acts that have taken part in Britain's Got Talent.
Imagine you have to describe the acts to someone who hasn't watched them. Write 60-80 words for each act, using in each description at least 5 of the useful phrases studied in class (page 49 in your Student's Book). Try to think about which phrases suit each act best. We will discuss your texts in class.
When you finish, leave a comment on the blog explaining what act you have enjoyed the most and why. Enjoy the show!
