Britain’s Got Talent judges and hosts have seen pretty much everything on the ITV reality show.
However, in this weekend’s edition, it’s Declan Donnelly’s turn to take part in the act that call themselves The Brotherhood.
In a terrifying watch, some figures dressed in black suits and clown V for Vendetta masks show off their dangerous swords.
One explains: “Welcome to our game of mystery with this sword.”
They go forth and slice through a whole watermelon with ease while more members of The Brotherhood stand ominously around the theatre.
The act takes place in front of four boxes and within seconds, it becomes terrifyingly clear what they are planning to do.
The leader beckons Dec, 43, to the stage and hands the worried-looking dad-of-one a large sword.
“Dec,” the masked-figure continued. “Take this sword and place it under one of the boxes.
“Our life is in your hands,” they tease as Dec’s face drops from horror.
