ITV has moved this year's Britain's Got Talent Final. The show will be broadcast on Saturday night instead of Sunday due to Ariana Grande's benefit concert for the families of the victims of last week's attack in Manchester.
An ITV spokesperson said: "Ariana Grande's 'One Love Manchester' benefit concert is bringing artists and the public together, and will raise funds for the Red Cross's Manchester Emergency Fund.
"ITV and Britain's Got Talent have no desire to distract from this important cause, so we have taken the decision to move the Britain's Got Talent Final from Sunday night."
The #BGT Final moves to this Saturday, 3rd June. More details here: https://t.co/YH8Neke5UW
