Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden up the glamour in new promotional shots for official launch of Britain's Got Talent

Britain's definitely Got Talent! Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden up the glamour in new promotional shots for official launch of returning talent show 

It's braced for a return to TV screens later this year, and Britain's Got Talent has upped the glamour stakes ahead of its forthcoming run. 
In a series of new promotional shots for the official lauch forthcoming series, judge Alesha Dixon catches the eye  in a striking wrap dress with mismatched animal print and gold print detail. 
The former Misteeq star rounds things off with a pair of strappy heels as she poses for photos alongside Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Amanda Holden - who looks stunning in a fitted cream dress with cut out waist panels.

Britain's Got Talent supremo Cowell recently admitted that teaming up with David Walliams for the new series was like having another child to deal with.
    Cowell, whose son Eric was born on Valentine's Day, said fellow judge Walliams has 'really got annoying this year.' 
    He said: 'He was kind of amusing before but God forbid I make the audience laugh more than he does - he gets quite dark.'

    Asked if the pair get on, Cowell said: 'Seriously, I was thinking about it when I was working with him. It's like having a child who's suddenly turned into a giant at the age of 11; he is honestly mentally an 11-year-old in this huge body. He has got a kind side but he can be very, very annoying to work with.'
    Cowell tipped a group of 'incredible motorbike stunt riders' to do well in this series, saying: 'I'm amazed that half of them didn't get killed. Love them. They're like modern day Evel Knievels.' 
    But he was less than impressed with another animal act that attempted to recreate the success of 2012 winners Ashleigh and Pudsey.

    He said: 'We also found a dancing owl that didn't dance, so no fear of that winning. The one I'm dreading winning is a fashion designer, who in my opinion is the worst fashion designer of all time - and somehow he's made it through because David, Amanda and Alesha are on the judging panel. 
    'I swear to God I don't know what they're seeing because I'm seeing something very different.'
    Meanwhile the show has been announced as The World’s Most Successful Reality TV Format ever after being commissioned by 58 territories across the globe – amongst them Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle-East, Africa and the Americas.

    ‘I am very proud that Got Talent is a home grown British show,’ said Cowell. ‘We owe its success to a group of very talented producers all over the world who have made this happen. And of course amazing talent.’ 
    Alistair Richards, President of Guinness World Records, added: ‘We are delighted to confirm that Got Talent has broken the previous world record and is now the official Guinness World Record holder for the Most successful reality television format, a landmark moment in television record breaking history, congratulations!’ 
    US variant America’s Got Talent, currently in its ninth season, attracted peak Audiences of 11 million during its last run.
