We've had our second semi-final on Britain's Got Talent now, and some people who know just what it's like to hit the live shows are last year's winners Collabro. So each day, we'll be bringing you their verdict on the previous night's show, and today it's the turn of Matt Pagan.
"It was a great semi-final actually, really great," Matt told us this morning. "Me and the boys always sit and watch it in our separate homes and we all comment on it on our WhatsApp group and we thought it was a fantastic semi-final."
And in fact, the boys are still such big Britain's Got Talent fans that they thought they'd swing by to perform on Friday's show - why not, eh? Matt revealed this morning that he's "so excited" about going back to the studios.
So without further ado, let's see what Matt thought of each of the acts last night.

Britain's Got Talent continued its exciting semi-final week tonight (May 26) as Old Men Grooving and Jules O'Dwyer and her performing dog Matisse advanced.
The best news came for Jules and her dancing pooch as they actually earned an automatic advancement by topping the public vote, while Old Men Grooving beat Revelation Avenue in a second-place battle.
Dance troupe Groove Thing, contortionist Bonetics, illusionist Michael Late and singer Alison Jiear were given less encouraging news, as they won't be moving on.
We gather reactions to tonight's Britain's Got Talent episode below:
1. The surviving acts have their supporters – and their very famous detractors!
Old men all the way #Bgt

Revelation avenue are off. And the revelation is that too much fried chicken is bad for you #Bgt
— Katie Hopkins (@KTHopkins) May 26, 2015
I fear Britains running out of talent #Bgt
— Chris Stark (@Chris_Stark) May 26, 2015
@alisonjiear it should be rebranded '@Bgt.

This year's Britain's Got Talent semi-finals kicked off last night with the usual bonkers antics, from Simon Cowell calling Amanda Holden a witch to a dog breaking a world record.
Tonight (May 26), the second semi-final is bound to have some water-cooler moments, including the wonderdog Matisse, Old Men Grooving and returning stars Jack Pack. So join us from 7.30pm to go through the madness together...
21:59So what do you make of that then? Happy or angry with the results? Let us know in all the usual ways. We'll be back tomorrow night with more live-blogging of semi-final number three, so see you then!

I cannot believe Revelation Avenue didn't get through.
— Jamie Lambert (@JamieCollabro) May 26, 2015
21:57There you go! It is Old Men Grooving who go through to the final. Revelation Avenue look incredibly downhearted, and maybe they should be. Travesty? Shock? Or was it the right decision?...

20:55My prediction: The final 3 will be Old Men Grooving, Revelation Avenue and Jules O'Dwyer & Matisse, with Omg going home. What do you think?
20:53Well the Old Men get the biggest cheers of the night, could they cause an upset? They're no Stavros Flatley!
20:51Essentially just watching a group of random dads on a Saturday night out after too many pints of ale.

The Britain's Got Talent live shows have started, and if anyone knows what it's like to take part in them, it's last year's winners Collabro. So who better to ask what they think of each night's show? Each day we'll bring you the verdict of a different Collabro star about the previous night's live show - and up first, it's Jamie Lambert.
"I think there was a general good feeling about last night's show," he told us today. "I was a bit disappointed by some of the acts. I don't think we saw the winner last night, but I think that the two that went through were fantastic and deserved to go through."
And if anyone knows how scary the live shows are, it's Jamie. "That's why some fall short during the semi-finals that were brilliant in the first audition, because it's just so much pressure to be on live...

The Golden Buzzers

The Britain's Got Talent judges made their final decision about which acts will perform in the live semi-finals in tonight's show.
After bringing the auditions to a close, Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and David Walliams had the tough task of cutting down 200 acts to just 40.
The chosen ones will join the five golden buzzer acts - Calum Scott, Boyband, Revelation Avenue, Entity Allstars and Lorraine Bowen - in the live shows next week.
As usual, the judges had several disagreements during the decision process, with David Walliams ripping up one act's photo to make a point.
Even when the choices had been made some of the judges may have had regrets, with Simon Cowell wondering why they had decided to put through Michael Late, Jeffrey Drayton, Narinder Dhani, Mitch and Cally and Peter Lambert.
As Holden told the group that they want to find something "unique" that will...

Well, this was a packed instalment of Britain's Got Talent. A total of 13 acts made it through to the next round, so there must have been some real talent on show, right? And yes, there was - as well as some slightly more questionable performances. But for all you need to know, read on for the good, the bad and the bizarre from this week...
The Good
Aaron Carty - 29, London
Talent: Beyoncé tribute
Tell us more: Former policeman Aaron had never performed in front of his mum and gran before - let alone a whole auditorium. So everyone was probably pretty surprised when he busted out a Beyoncé tribute act, complete with leotard, backing dancers and some serious lip syncing. If we're honest, it wasn't anything particularly special - but it did make us smile, and that's enough for us. Alesha called Aaron "fierce", David promised that Aaron could...
