Diversity star Ashley Banjo has been announced as the replacement for Simon Cowell on Britain's Got Talent after Cowell broke his back and was prevented from resuming his judging duties.
Speaking to The Sun, Cowell said he could not think of a better person to replace him.
The music producer said: ''Ashley will be a fantastic addition to the panel. He knows the power of the show and the responsibility of it.
"I couldn't think of a better person to sit in my seat whilst I follow doctor's orders. I hate that stupid bike." he added.
Banjo, 31, told the newspaper, "As if 2020 couldn't get any crazier! Walking on that stage as a 20-year-old street dancer from East London and now I am walking out there and stepping in for the big man."
The new season of Britain's Got Talent will be different due to Covid-19 restrictions, with pre-recorded rather than live shows.
