Auditions were due to take place in Blackpool with the judges – Simon, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and KSI, all primed for filming.

A Fremantle UK spokesperson said: “Due to the tragic passing of Liam Payne, we have decided to postpone the Britain’s Got Talent auditions. Our thoughts are with Liam’s friends, family and all who loved him.”
