'We need escapism': Alesha Dixon on why the return of Britain's Got Talent has come at the right time amid COVID-19... and why there is no room for female rivalry with Amanda Holden
Britain's Got Talent will return to our TV screens on Saturday night for its highly anticipated 14th series.
And judge Alesha Dixon has shared why it is the right time for the talent show to come back to TV screen as the public look for 'escapism' amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The 41-year-old, who will join Simon Cowell, 60, David Walliams, 48, and Amanda Holden, 49, for the new series, also discussed why there is no place for female rivalry on the show.

Speaking to the Mirror the star said the show was 'needed' and added: 'We all need a bit of silliness, we need escapism, we need to laugh and we need to just forget about the troubles from the day and just enjoy ourselves.'
This week will be the first of the prerecorded audition shows, meaning it is still uncertain when the live shows will go ahead.
The audience at home will of course be on lockdown and therefore it is hoped by Alesha that some laughter will be welcomed by the viewers.
Alesha also spoke about why she and Amanda have worked so well together when sitting on the judging panel.
She divulged: 'From day one, when I joined the show, Amanda and I sat down together and we made a pact that we would have each other's backs and stick together.

'We have daughters and we want to set a good example. And we're grown women. In the past, there have been shows where the women are pitted against each other and fortunately, that's not in our nature.'
Amanda is mother to Alexa, 14, and Hollie, eight, with husband Chris Hughes.
Meanwhile on Friday, Alesha shared an adorable video of her and her youngest daughter, Anaya, six months, sat outside having a sing in the sunshine.
