Trivia
The first six episodes aired on Saturdays and Sundays. A few days before the first live show was due to air, several crew members tested positive for the virus, and that episode was lost. When it resumed, Jade Thirlwall contributed via video link, as she was self-isolating. The episode scheduled for 31 October was also lost to an address from the prime minister, though that got rescheduled to 6 November; the episode the following day lost Jesy Nelson, who would later leave the band. Fair play to the BBC for delaying the show from April so they could at least try and air the show in a block - that year's series of Britain's Got Talent aired its auditions and then its live shows many months later.
