After hitting an impressive somersault, two of the performers actually collided in mid-air, and one of them appeared to hit a bad landing and struggled to get to his feet. He ended up collapsing to the ground and had to crawl off stage to get help, while cameras cut away as the rest of the group pushed on without them. The performer did return for the judges’ comments as they came back on at the back of the troupe – who were a Golden Buzzer act for hosts Ant and Dec earlier in the series – while Alesha Dixon said she hoped they were OK.
