Britain’s Got Talent hasn’t even hit our screens yet and the judges are already at war – the panel is said to have been arguing more than ever ahead of the new series.

The variety show is set to return to ITV on Saturday and David Walliams has apparently already fallen out with head honcho Simon Cowell.

The music boss branded the comedian “lazy” after he failed to offer any constructive criticism to the auditionees.

A source told the Daily Star Sunday: “Simon wasn’t happy at all. David really pushed his luck. He wasn’t focusing on giving the acts constructive comments and insisted on playing the fool.

“Simon knows that makes great TV but he still wants the panel to do their job. He considers the search for talent a very serious business.

“He got very angry at David during one audition for giving really bland comments. He turned and said, ‘You’re just being lazy – sort it out’ and the other judges agreed with him.”

David is said to have rubbed Simon up the wrong way after choosing to send an act that the music industry mogul didn’t like straight to the live finals, prompting Simon to accuse David of making a mockery of the show.

The funnyman has apparently also had tiffs with the other two judges, Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden, but Simon managed to get on the wrong side of Alesha aswell.

He attempted to press David’s buzzer in a bid to get a hopeful off the stage but fell and hurt the former pop singer in the process.

The source said: “She looked like she was in a lot of pain. He basically crushed her leg. Amanda even joked they might need an ambulance.”

Ouch!
