Speaking about how they will likely let their hair down after the 2025 season wraps, Bruno shared some details of how the judges will celebrate.
When the live shows conclude later this year, Bruno reckons they'll head out on the tiles because they know they have a day off the following day.
He also shared what Amanda Holden's tipple of choice is.
"We know we have a day off the next day so there might be a little celebration after the show, which will be nice," Bruno spilled in a recent interview.

Speaking to The Mirror, he added: "A few champagnes if Amanda has anything to do with it."
Bruno, who was previously a judge on Strictly Come Dancing, then spoke about how the British public have "embraced him" on BGT since he joined the show two years ago.
"It’s so nice that the British public has embraced me in that way," he said.
"You know, I am who I am, I just speak my mind and I’m honest," he added.

This comes after the hit ITV show was slammed last night following on from the third round of auditions being aired.
The third episode of the new series came on March 8, which marks the globally recognised day of International Women's Day.

But despite the globally recognised event, Britain's Got Talent didn't honour women at all - and instead aired ZERO female contestants.
Accused of "sexism" by viewers, those watching the show at home were quick to pick up on the lack of female representation despite it being International Women's Day.
One person took to X to fume: "Actually awful that on international women’s day all the acts tonight so far have been men, sexist #bgt!!"
Another added: "This weeks episode of Britain’s Got Talent just ended… and there was not a *single* female act.
BGT's Best Golden Buzzer Moments
Loren Allred - Loren Allred, 32, from Brooklyn, New York jetted to London to audition after recording the vocals for The Greatest Showman. The stunning singer got a standing ovation and a Golden Buzzer from the judges as she delivered a stirring rendition of Never Enough from the popular film. Loren came out on stage and revealed to the judges they would have heard her voice many times before that moment. "I was hired to record the vocals for The Greatest Showman as a guide for the actors to know how to sing the songs," she explained. Loren then revealed actress Rebecca Ferguson was so stunned by her singing that she decided to let her vocals be heard in the movie. "So she lip-synced," Loren said.
Chicken Shed Theatre Company - Comprised of individuals aged between 5 and 37, the group was set up to welcome anyone irrespective of background to get up on stage and perform and fulfil their dream. Chicken Shed prides itself on accepting anyone and does not hold auditions to make the group a safe and inclusive space. The group wowed as they performed Wonder by Naughty Boy featuring Emeli Sande. It meant that Alesha wasted no time as she decided to hit her golden buzzer for the young performers. She told them it was her "honour" to reward their inclusiveness with her golden buzzer.
The Dancing Granny - Granny Paddy Jones and her professional partner Niko Espinosa first hit headlines when they won the Spanish talent show Tú sí que vales in 2009, before going on to appear on Britain’s Got Talent in 2014 where they came ninth. Amanda Holden was so impressed with Paddy that she gave her the Golden Buzzer, which sent them straight through to the semi-finals. But things took a worrying turn when Paddy cracked a rib while rehearsing a new move and her place on the show was under doubt. She was given the all-clear to perform in the end but didn’t quite live up to expectations.
Bars and Melody - They will forever be remembered for their anti-bullying song on the talent show. Bars and Melody were first seen on the 2014 series of Britain's Got Talent, getting shuttled into the semi-finals when Simon Cowell pressed his Golden Buzzer. They made it to the final thanks to a performance of I'll Be Missing You but lost out on the crown to Collabro. These days Charlie Lenehan - known as Melody - is covered in tattoos, with inkings on his neck, arms and chest. But he is as close as ever to co-star Leondre Devries - who is Bars - with the pair seen enjoying themselves in exotic locations all over the world.
"80 minutes, and all ITV showed was man after man. Remember last year Sydnie was celebrated as the first solo woman to even win it in 17 years? Wild."
A third person then responded to the above and said: "And this is one reason why i stopped watching bgt."
