Simon Cowell was reportedly left fuming with David Walliams during a Britain’s Got Talent audition, after the comedian made a joke about a penis.
Simon, David, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon are back on the hunt for the next big thing as BGT auditions opened up earlier this month following a break due to Covid.
But it seems like David, 50, is skating on thin ice as Simon, 62, reportedly demanded he apologise to a policemen auditioning for a bad taste joke.

Singer Tim, 48, from Gloucester, spoke of his talent, before cheeky David asked: “Is it ‘getting your c*** out?'”
According to The Sun, newly-engaged Simon demanded he “apologise now”, but David doubled down, adding: “Do you swing it around?”
Dad-of-one Simon, who was recently on the receiving end of one of David’s gags, fumed: “Get out, get out,” before saying: “This is supposed to be a family show.”

Simon then turned to the stunned audience and told them: “When we have a break we’ll make him sit on his own for 10 minutes.”
The publication reports that an audience member said: “It was clear that David was sailing close to the wind with his jibes.
“Then he went too far. Simon was visibly angry with him and exploded.”

At an earlier audition, music mogul Simon reportedly warned David he’d be unemployed soon after he made a joke about his age.
David joked about Simon being out of touch as he didn’t know what a millionaire shortbread biscuit was.
And Simon hit back: “I’d be careful if I were you.
“You’ll be out of a job and end up a contestant on Pointless next year.”
David also joked about it taking Simon so long to propose to his girlfriend of seven years, Lauren Silverman.
But making David, who was married to model Lara Stone from 2010 to 2015, the butt of the joke, Simon responded: “Hopefully my marriage will last longer than yours.”
It didn’t stop there though, as former Little Britain star David also branded Simon an “idiot” when he thought the Switzerland flag was that of England.
