‘The judges are always going to be scary, because they’ve seen so many performers now and so many great acts'

But, speaking to‘The judges are always going to be scary, because they’ve seen so many performers now, and so many great acts, that they become quite discerning critics,’ Ben admitted. ‘They really know what they’re talking about, and also in that situation all the excitement and anticipation of the day to be up against the panel.‘I think, any performer will be nervous about presenting their act on TV, where you never quite know how your act is going to come across,’ he said.

‘But I’ve seen so many magicians have a really nice time on the show in the past, and in recent years, I think I thought “Oh… yeah, maybe I should give it a go!”’Encouragement by the performer’s friends also proved essential in getting the confidence he needed to grace the BGT stage himself. ‘The magic industry’s a small world and when I see my friends, colleagues and people I look up to going on the show, it just seems that the show really likes magic,’ Ben admitted, telling us that the artform is now more popular than ever.In 2015, during an appearance on BBC Three’s Killer Magic, Ben had said that he didn’t want to go on the show, telling cameras: ‘BGT rings every year and every year I say “No way.

‘If they buzz you too early, you’re devaluing your product. The producers have in their heads the outcome they want, so they either secretly like you or hate you. It’s a big risk.’ However, speaking to us, the BGT star said it was the buzzers themselves – as well as the judges behind them, that were his true fears, worrying that being buzzed would distract him and ruin the trick further.‘Magic is by its very nature very difficult, because you’re trying to do the impossible, and the nature of life on the road could be tough,’ he admitted.
