'Britain's Got Talent: Unseen Bits' (Often abbreviated to 'BGT: Unseen') is the new sister show to Britain's Got Talent, which took over from Britain's Got More Talent in 2020, due to a shift in viewing figures which saw several BGT viewers shift to viewing the sister show on online platforms.

Britain's Got Talent: Unseen Bits is available exclusively on ITV Hub after episodes of the main show end their original broadcasts and airs for eight episodes, with each episode being fifteen minutes in length. A substantial change to the show is that it is not presented by Stephen Mulhern like More Talent was, and is instead presented by Ant & Dec, much like the main show. The unseen extra auditions however will still be made available on social media platforms and on the BGT YouTube Channel after their broadcasts on BGT: Unseen Bits. The show however also places some auditions exclusively on Social Media and YouTube. Ant & Dec do not interview the acts before and after their performance like Stephen Mulhern used to during the broadcasts of More Talent. BGT: Unseen operated purely as a way to televise additional acts, and as such unlike More Talent, the show does not operate as an aftershow of any kind following the Semi-Finals episodes and the Final episode being aired.

The show was repurposed for Series 15 and rather than offering fifteen minute long extra auditions over an eight episode basis on the ITV Hub alongside Social Media and YouTube Exclusives, it just simply offered skits surrounding the hosts and the judges or footage of the hosts backstage that was cut during the episode, such as Ant trying to smash a Coconut using his head before cutting his head backstage, whilst a Guinness World Record Adjudicator was explaining what Hammerhand would need to do to beat a Guinness World Record and the hosting duo and the judges partaking in games such as 'Who Said What?', which were implemented into the shows predecessor Britain's Got More Talent on occassion.
