Britain's Got Talent 2018: Meet the acts in episode 4
From a singing AA recovery man to a knife-throwing magician and a comic or two - here are all the acts taking to the stage this Saturday
Rita Ora and Alfie Boe are amongst the special guest performers announced for Britain's Got Talent's live week of semi-finals.
The casts of musicals Tina, Matilda and Chicago have also been confirmed for the week's line-up, as well as returning BGT winners Diversity and Tokio Myers.
The full list of guest performers for the live week are as follows:
Semi-final 1 (Monday 28th May): Diversity and the cast of Matilda the Musical
Semi-final 2 (Tuesday 29th May): Alfie Boe
Semi-final 3 (Wednesday 30th May): Rita Ora
Semi-final 4 (Thursday 31st May): Chicago the Musical
Semi-final 5 (Friday 1st June): Britain's Got Talent 2017 winner Tokio Myers
Grand final (Sunday 3rd June): Tina the Musical and the cast of Magic Mike's live Las Vegas show
Yes, this really is happening: Magic Mike live. On a Sunday night teatime family show. We can hear the complaints to Ofcom already.
For this year's Britain's Got Talent semi-finals, there is going to be a format change to how the voting is going to work.
The act who receives the most viewer votes will still automatically be going through to the live final, but the judges will then be deciding who else to put through to Sunday's final from the performers who placed second and third with the public.

Here's a sneak peek of all 11 acts that are auditioning in week four of BGT 2018:
Brian Howe
The 53-year-old security guard, from Irvine, Ayrshire, performs one of the most baffling renditions of My Boy Lollipop by Millie Small. Not to be missed!
Malcolm Cuthbertson
Dancing without music? It's either inspired or utterly ridiculous - and we'll find out when 61-year-old modern languages teacher Malcolm from Somerset performs a flamingo dance in silence this Saturday.
Ellie and Jeki
This married couple from South Korea perform a quick-change illusion act that's themed around some of the biggest Hollywood films. You won't believe your eyes.
Noel James
Noel, a 52-year-old exam invigilator and comedian from Wales, brings a guitar on stage - before promptly putting it down and performing without it. But will his stand-up leave the judges rolling in the aisles or just rolling their eyes?
Donchez Dacres
Wiggle Wine is a modern classic. Trust us, you won't be able to stop singing it for hours after you see the 60-year-old AA man from Wolverhampton perform this hilariously original song.
Audrey Leybourne
Retired 90-year-old Audrey Leybourne is most thrilled to meet Ant and Dec. But once she gets out on the stage, she performs I Want To Be Loved By You.
The D-Day Darlings
This wartime-themed choir performs We’ll Meet Again by Vera Lynn. Well realistically, what else were they going to sing?
Ben Pridmore
Have you ever seen a man memorise and then recite a whole pack of cards? No? Well enjoy watching 41-year-old accountant Ben Pridmore give it his best shot on Saturday.
Andrew Lee
Ant and Dec are roped onto the stage to assist the 31-year-old magician from Malaysia as he performs a death-defying card trick involving knives. Unsurprisingly, a 'Do Not Try This at Home' warning is flashed up on screen...
Ross McGrane
The 30-year-old is a stand-up comedian by night and a production manager at a glass manufacturer by day. But will the Southend-based funnyman be able to give up the day job?
Aleksandar Mileusnic
The 23-year-old council worker and singer from Stevenage sings a swing version of Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes. But will it be even better than the original?
