Speaking to The Sun, Simon said that he wants an Olympic-style 'Best Of' show which would see the winners of all the Got Talent series compete against each other to become the ultimate champion.

"I started thinking about maybe making it like the Olympics of Got Talent, but that would only be every four years," he said.

"So now I am thinking we could do a Got Talent Champions League. So all the Got Talent shows from around the world send that year’s winner to compete against all the other winners. I think it would be brilliant because you’d be rooting for your country.

"That is way more interesting than just carrying on doing the same thing we do every year, because there’s got to be a progression. I think it would be amazing!"

Britain's Got Talent: The Champions will premiere on Saturday, August 31 on ITV.
