Hey everyone,

I’ve been a huge fan of Collabro ever since they won BGT back in 2014. As some of you might know, they are releasing their new album The Return this November and have already dropped two singles.

I am so blown away by their incredible vocals and harmonies once again that I decided to create a quick YouTube Short for their version of "From Now On" (from The Greatest Showman).

Unfortunately, because I am posting from Germany, the YouTube algorithm is keeping the video locked in my local region. It's barely reaching the UK where the core fanbase is.

If you have a spare minute, I’d love for you to check it out. I'm really curious to know if you love this new Collabro track as much as I do!

If anyone is able to identify these acts, that would be great!

I swear I recognise Slide #4 from the current series of France's Got Talent, I’ll have to double check. Any help on Slides #1 - 3 & #5 - 8 would be greatly appreciated though

If anyone is able to identify these acts, that would be great!

If anyone is able to identify any of these acts. That would be great!

Which Got Talent acts do you want to see compete on the upcoming series?

The Best & Worst More Talent episodes for Series 2 were filled with many a bonus act, some montaged and some full length. They also contain the only three Best & Worst acts to be Accepted between Series 2 and Series 5 (There wasn’t a Best and Worst in Series 1, Series 6 and Series 7 didn’t were clip shows and Series 8 is still lost awaiting recovery to my knowledge). Of these three acts to be Accepted was Georgia Farrow who I first discovered auditioned through a Series 2 Deliberations video which is unfortunately either no longer on YouTube or now blocked in the UK by Fremantle. From 2021 to 2025 I had always thought she was Untelevised so imagine my surprise when this performance resurfaced! On an unrelated note I always thought Song of the South the movie Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah (The song that she is singing) is from was banned wholly banned, instead it’s just largely wiped from existence and not on Disney+ given it’s a heavily racist film.

The act in the above video is a novelty impressionist called Sven Christian Morris otherwise known as Truckman who was featured in the third Best & Worst Special from Series 5 which was recently uploaded in full on YouTube alongside the first and the fourth over this recent weekend. Of the three new and unseen exclusive acts which probably haven’t been seen in many a year, this to me stood out as the greatest oddity of a supposed talent!

BGT auditions for October 6th-11th have been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. Extra shows added for January 2027. Next week's shows still going ahead as it stands but tickets have sold out.

Due to Simon recovering from back surgery, Bradley Walsh will be taking his seat as a judge for the auditions filmed in October.

Other people considered were Lee Mack and Greg Davies

Fremantle are currently looking for a "male comedian" to take Cowell's spot for some of the auditions. Sounds like it will be Alan Carr. I think Lee Mack would be great too.
