BGT viewers praise tribute to Manchester attack victims
Viewers have praised Britain's Got Talent for paying tribute to the victims of Monday's (May 22) awful terrorist attack.
While recapping the series and showing all the acts auditioning in the different cities, when it was Manchester's turn, the city name was surrounded by a heart.
Viewers called it "a lovely gesture" on Twitter.

Last night marked the end of the Britain's Got Talent audition rounds, with the judges choosing the 40 acts who'll be going through to this week's live semi-finals.
It was also revealed that Little Mix, Camila Cabello and Diversity will all be performing during the semi-final week, while the judges have lost their ability to vote during the rounds, meaning the public have full say on who goes through to the final.
BGT is not the only show to pay tribute to those caught up in the horrendous Manchester attacks this week as Coronation Street also flashed up a touching memorial picture following May 24's episode.
Twenty-two people were killed and many more were injured in the attack outside Manchester's MEN Arena just after Ariana Grande finished a set on Monday.
On Friday (May 26), Ariana vowed that she would return to Manchester to perform a special concert "in honour of and to raise money for the victims and their families".
Many other musicians have expressed their support following the devastating attacks, including Harry Styles, Katy Perry, and Take That, who have donated proceeds from a recent gig to the victims.
Ariana was off-stage at the time of the attack and addressed the incident on Twitter later, writing: "Broken. From the bottom of my heart, I am so so sorry. I don't have words."
