Britain's Got Talent viewers were left scratching their heads last night as another impressive act was awarded the Golden Buzzer, sending them straight through to the live semi-finals.

Duo Stardust, a married couple from Ukraine, wowed judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli with a hugely impressive skating routine that also had the audience captivated.

Showing off their skills, the duo performed a series of impressive moves and lifts upon a platform and even ended up suspended high in the air with very little in the way of support.

This was accompanied by a thrilling pyrotechnics display that sent their performance to the next level, the Mirror reports.

As the audition came to a close the judges gave them a standing ovation, with the crowd also cheering them on, and they even started up a chant for the act to be awarded the coveted Golden Buzzer.

All four of the judges have already given out their one buzzer each, but in some cases, the rules can be bent and another one can be given out. And it looks like there's more of this to come, as Simon jumped up and pressed the buzzer, giving the screaming crowd what they wanted.

Viewers watching at home were as equally as impressed, with one writing on X: "This skating couple is amazing. My favourite act this season." Another agreed: "Duo Stardust, Wow wow wow," as a third added: "OMG THAT ONE DESERVED A GOLDEN BUTTON 100%."

However, some viewers were confused over the rules, not sure there should have been yet another buzzer given there has been so many already. One fan posted: "Simon pressing the golden buzzer again. how many do they get these days. Normally one per judge."

Another viewer asked: "How many golden buzzers are given?" as a third fan repeated: "How many golden buzzers have #bgt given now? Feels like every other act is a golden buzzer." A fourth fan commented: "There’s been more golden buzzers than acts from Britain on this series."

Britain's Got Talent continues tonight at 8pm on ITV and ITVX.
