This series saw the introduction of the new 'golden buzzer'. During the auditions, as well as the standard buzzers, each judge was given one 'golden buzzer'. They could use this buzzer only once, and it would send that auditionee straight through to the live semi-finals regardless of the opinions of the other three judges.[3] Presenters Ant & Dec were given a golden buzzer as well.[4] The golden buzzer has previously been used on Germany's Got Talent.[5]
During the second day of the Birmingham auditions on 2 February, Holden was the first judge to use her golden buzzer,[6] then Cowell used his on the second day of auditions in Manchester [7] Dixon was left as the only judge yet to use her golden buzzer after Walliams used his on the first day of the London auditions on 11 February.[8] The following day, Dixon finally pressed her golden buzzer on the second day of the London auditions.[9] Ant and Dec pressed their buzzer on the final day of London auditions.

Thoughts?
I think it's a good idea myself but will see a few joke acts go through because of this.
