On April 15, the local edition returned to the screens of British televisions. In the program, next to Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon, Bruno Tonioli, a dancer and choreographer who replaced David Walliams in the show, debuted as a juror. Already during the first episode, a participant appeared on the stage, which has not left the lips of commentators for almost a week.
Almost 350 complaints about the last episode of “Mam Talent”. Viewers are shocked that something like this was shown on TV
Thomas Vu showed viewers how to solve the popular Rubik’s Cube. There would be nothing controversial in the activity, if not for one “detail”. The participant announced that he was going to solve the Rubik’s Cube in the most dangerous way imaginable.
Thomas wasn’t exaggerating. When the assistants set the contestant’s clothes on fire, both the jury and the audience screamed in disbelief. There were even voices suggesting that he stop “no, no, no” – heard from the jury chairs. Thomas, however, did not let himself be distracted and focused all his attention on the dice in his hands. The contestant’s performance seemed endless, and anxiety and terror in the studio grew, yet no one stopped the show.
When Thomas managed to solve the puzzle, the assistants ran onto the stage with fire extinguishers and extinguished the man, who was in flames for several seconds like a living torch. The performance was rewarded with a standing ovation, and Thomas reassured those gathered in the studio that he was doing great.
Although Thomas received the coveted four “yes” votes from the judges, viewers of the show were less sympathetic to his performance. UK media regulator Ofcom received nearly 350 official complaints from viewers shortly after the broadcast of the performance. Fans of the program considered the behavior on stage irresponsible. Although a message appeared on the screen not to try similar experiments at home, viewers of the show emphasize that due to the family nature of the program, such content should not be broadcast. According to numerous comments, the performance may push children to play with fire or scare them too much.
