Who are the Vardanyan Brothers?

The death-defying duo from Armenia immediately catches Walliam's attention as they strut buff and topless.

Then, they perform a terrifying balancing act where they challenge the laws of gravity.

As their act progresses, one brother attempts to balance on the other on the fine tip of a sword that leaves Cowell short of breath.

He goes on to name them "the most dangerous (act) I've seen on any Got Talent franchise."

When is the Britain's Got Talent 2019 final on TV?

The BGT final date hasn't been confirmed just yet.

For the past few years, the show has run for eight weeks and ends on the Saturday or Sunday after semi-final week.

So this year, that means the final could fall on May 25/26.

The new series kicks off TONIGHT(April 6).

Who won Britain's Got Talent last year?

Lost Voice Guy was crowned the winner of Britain’s Got Talent 2018 after wowing fans with his comedy routines.

He beat 10 other acts to scoop the top prize of £250,000 and will perform at this year’s Royal Variety Performance in front of royalty.

Runner-up Robert White was gracious in defeat as he explained he was giving up comedy to take up teaching full time.

Donchez Dacres came in third place and thanked the viewers for voting for him before giving us another little Wiggle Wine.

Following his crowning moment, Lee took to the stage for a final time saying he had been blown away by the support and that he was looking forward to performing for the Queen.

What date does Britain's Got Talent return?

BGT judge David Walliams confirmed that the new series will be back tonight APRIL 6.

The hit talent show will return for the audition stage on ITV at 7.15pm.

David let slip the exact date, writing on his Instagram post on March 26: "I have no idea what I am pointing at but @bgt is back on @itv on Saturday 6th of April."

However, he later changed it simply to say that it would be back "soon", perhaps after getting a call from ITV saying he'd blown the announcement.

But we can confirm that date is correct!
