BRITAIN’S Got Talent fans are confused after Simon Cowell disappeared during the abrupt ending of tonight’s show.

The head judge vanished to disappear during the closing moments of a magic trick on the ITV talent competition tonight.

The ITV talent show returned on Saturday, with judges Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli, and presenters Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.

The last act, Magicians Assemble, made up of former Britain’s Got Talent stars Ben Hart, Colin Cloud and Elizabeth The Haunting, who appeared on past editions of the series, claimed they have arrived from the future.

Finishing each other’s sentences, the trio told the judges and audience in Manchester that they “found a journal” where they can enter “someone’s memory” during the episode.

They then performed tricks such as turning liquid into sand, before the substance began streaming on to the stage.

A huge reveal then made teenage magician and 2020 Britain’s Got Talent finalist Aidan McCann appear to join the other illusionists through the falling sand.

The eerie trick continued with the judges choosing cards, selecting a page from the book and rolling dice to find a series of numbers.

Aidan shaved Ben’s hair off before the audience, and the number which was revealed was the same as the one the judges had picked before.

Inviting Cowell on stage was Colin, who reassured him he was “completely safe” as he put a blindfold on him.

 

Ben then threw a sandglass, smashing it on the ground.

Lights flashed and Simon was gone with bits of confetti paper streams left in his place.

Holden and Tonioli asked “where is Simon?” before Cowell’s voice was heard posing a similar question, and Sunday’s episode was teased.

But the trick, as impressive as it was, left fans confused.

One wrote: “What happened to the end? Is that it? #BritainsGotTalent”

A second said: “WHY DID IT END LIKE THAT? WHERE WERE THE JUDGES COMMENTS? #BGT #BritainsGotTalent”

Another added: “Did magicians assemble get through? #BritainsGotTalent”
