SIMON Cowell has revealed he’s considering launching a kids’ spin-off series of Britain’s Got Talent.
The music mogul, 64, is back at the helm of the show’s judging panel for its new series, which kicks off on Saturday.
Bruno Tonioli will return for his second series alongside Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon.
But fans could be soon treated to a new spin-off – with Simon’s son Eric on the judging panel.
Speaking to the MailOnline, Cowell said: “I have thought about that. I actually would you know.
“To be honest with you Eric did judge one act this year, I don’t know if they’re going to show it or not and he was actually really, really good… he was like, ‘Hmm, I’m not so sure I like the first song, but I like the second song… and I went ‘God, that’s my boy!’
“When we get the shows to watch before they go out and if he’s around I’m looking and if he walks straight past the TV, I’m thinking maybe it isn’t very good and occasionally he will just creep back in and he will put his head round and I’ll think, actually maybe this is better than I thought.”
Simon added: “With kids, you can’t cheat it, they like what they like and don’t like what they don’t like… I’m not saying I make every decision based on him but when he likes something, like all kids, they think differently to us… they have no filter.”
The Sun previously revealed how Simon and his panel of judges have been behaving so badly they have been likened to The Muppets.
Hosts Ant and Dec, who only waved goodbye to their Saturday Night Takeaway three days ago, say filming for the new series now overruns because there is so much chaos caused by Bruno Tonioli, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon.
Ant, 48, said: “We liken this show to The Muppet Show, you know, where you’ve got a show going on but there’s chaos backstage.
“There’s chaos backstage, chaos out the front and chaos on stage . . . it’s just chaotic.”
Dec, 48, added: “They’ve been even more badly behaved than before.
“Everything takes a little bit longer to film now because the judges have been so mischievous this year.”
On day one of watching the talent show acts, Bruno, 68, bashed his golden buzzer so hard it broke.
