Judges and Presenters
Initially, it was announced that Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan would return as judges for the third series of Britain's Got Talent, along with the addition of new judge Kelly Brook. However, it was later announced that Brook was to leave the panel after just six days working on the show. It was reported that Cowell felt "very bad" following Brook's exit and that he had offered her a job in another role on the show. It was also reported that Brook would receive her full £100,000 fee for appearing on the show. According to Cowell, the reason given for sacking Brook was because the producers decided the format was "too complicated" with four judges. She has since been referred to as a "guest judge" at only Manchester.
Ant & Dec returned as hosts of the main show on ITV. Stephen Mulhern also returned as host of the sister-show Britain's Got More Talent.

Famous quotes containing the word judges:
“The world, the wise world, that never is wrong itself, judges always by events. And if he should use me ill, then I shall be blamed for trusting him: if well, O then I did right, to be sure!—But how would my censurers act in my case, before the event justifies or condemns the action, is the question.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
