BGT winners Diversity reveal they are returning to the show again this year but what are they doing now?

Dance group Diversity was crowned the winner of BGT back in 2009 and ever since then, they have returned to the show each year with a special performance. Maintaining their tradition to be on BGT, Ashley Banjo and Perri Kiely have revealed that the group will be returning for an epic performance later in the series.

Dance group Diversity returns to BGT

According to The Sun, Perri has confirmed that show bosses want them to appear on the show again and it would happen sometime later in the series. Perri revealed:

We've been asked to go back. You'll see us at some point this series.

The group has been in business for nearly 15 years, however, they are still nervous to make a return to the BGT stage. Perri emphasised that coming back even after 15 years on the show - that may lose yet another beloved judge - is crazy. He explained:

I'm nervous every single time, it's probably one of the most nerve-wracking performances that we do.

Every single time, I get nervous for every performance but when you're back on BGT you almost have a point to prove.

And the fact that we're still going back - coming on 15 years, it's crazy, it's coming on a long time.

So every time you go back you have to show people why you kind of deserve to be there and give the best performance you can.
