Matthew Adam Garber (25 March 1956 – 13 June 1977)[1][2] was a British child actor, best known for his role as Michael Banks in the 1964 film Mary Poppins. He also starred in two other Disney films, The Three Lives of Thomasina and The Gnome-Mobile, all three times appearing alongside actress Karen Dotrice.
Ten years after his retirement, Garber contracted hepatitis, which later affected his pancreas. He died of pancreatitis at the age of 21.

Early life[edit]
Born in Stepney, London, to parents who had both performed on stage, Garber attended St Paul's Primary School in Winchmore Hill and Highgate School in Highgate, North London, from September 1968 until July 1972. He had a younger brother, Fergus Garber, who was born in 1964, the year Matthew played Michael Banks. His father's name was recorded by the school he had attended as L. L. Garber.[3] Matthew Garber was considered a spirited and bright boy in a 1967 Disney press release that noted his enjoyment of pulling practical jokes on his friends, playing sports, and reading adventure, mythology and poetry books.[4]
Career[edit]
As a friend of the Garber family, Karen Dotrice's father, Shakespearian actor Roy Dotrice, called Garber to the attention of Disney Casting, where his use of "artful dodges, like squinting, screwing up his nose, and brushing his hair back with one hand" led to his screen debut at age seven in Disney's The Three Lives of Thomasina (1963).[4]
That same year, both Garber and Thomasina co-star Dotrice were hired to play Jane and Michael, the children of Mr. George Banks (David Tomlinson) and Mrs. Banks (Glynis Johns), who get more than they bargained for when they hire a nanny named Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews). Disney's live-action animated film adaptation of the Mary Poppins book series by P. L. Travers won five Academy Awards and made its stars world-famous.
Garber and Dotrice teamed up again in 1967 in The Gnome-Mobile, as the grandchildren of a rich lumber mogul (Walter Brennan) who stumble across a gnome forest and are asked to help keep the gnomes from dying off.
Dotrice recalled, "He was how he looked—an imp, and I loved being his shadow. I can't imagine making movies would have been half as much fun without him. He loved being naughty, finding and jumping off of small buildings on the back lot. While I was Victorian proper and wouldn't let myself get dirty or muddy, Matthew had a great sense of fun and danger. He was a daredevil and could have been a race car driver. And he did live a full life over his 21 years."[4]
Later years and death[edit]
Garber had unknowingly contracted hepatitis while in India in 1976. By the time his father was able to get him home to London several months later, the disease had affected his pancreas.[5] Garber's brother Fergus, who was 13 at the time of Matthew's death, denied any suggestion that Matthew was using drugs and said the hepatitis likely came from eating bad meat.[5] On 13 June 1977, Garber died at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, London, of haemorrhagic necrotising pancreatitis, aged 21.[3]
Garber's body was cremated at St. Marylebone Crematorium (East Finchley) London on 16 June. Fergus did not attend the funeral and did not know if any memorial had ever been erected for Matthew. Garber's parents both died in the decade following their elder son's death.[5]
Garber was posthumously named a Disney Legend in 2004. Fergus Garber accepted on his behalf. On the Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary DVD, Karen Dotrice said she regretted not keeping in touch with Garber before his death.[6]

On 27 September 2015, it was reported all four judges had signed for the tenth series, and Ant & Dec would return to present the main show on ITV, while Mulhern would return to present the sister show Britain's Got More Talent on ITV2.[4] ITV also confirmed on 9 October 2015 that Cowell, Holden, Dixon, and Walliams would all return.[5] Walliams' mother Kathleen Williams stepped in for Cowell, who was running late at the London auditions on 23 January.[6]
Golden buzzer[edit]
The golden buzzer returned for its third series. Walliams confirmed on 16 January that the first golden buzzer was used by Holden at the Liverpool auditions.[7] Dixon and Ant & Dec both pressed theirs on 23 January,[8][9] and Walliams pressed his buzzer on 27 January at the London auditions.[10] Cowell was the final person to press the buzzer and did so on 5 February at the Birmingham auditions.[11]
Holden pressing her golden buzzer for singer Beau Dermott was broadcast on the series premiere on 9 April.[12] Dixon's press of the buzzer for the 100 Voices of Gospel aired in the second episode.[13] Walliams' buzzer press for Anne & Ian Marshall aired in the third episode.[14] Ant & Dec pressed the buzzer in the fourth episode for singer Jasmine Elcock.[15] Cowell was the final judge to push his golden buzzer for dance act Boogie Storm.[16]
In the semi-finals, the 100 Voices of Gospel Choir and Beau Dermott won their respective semi-finals and got through to the final. Boogie Storm won the semi-final on a split decision. Jasmine Elcock won the judges choice in the fifth semi-final. Anne and Ian Marshall were eliminated in the second semi-final. This series marks the first time that most of the Golden Buzzer acts made it to the final.

Ratings[edit]
The series has enjoyed strong officials in the auditions, topping series 9 on many occasions. Episode 2, with 12.59 million, became the most-watched auditions episode since 2009. Episode 4 is the most time-shifted talent show episode ever, having added 2.57 million viewers through DVR and other recording sources. The series average of 9.51 million effortlessly topped The Voice UK's 6.49 million average for 2016. However the final was the lowest viewed final in the show's history, despite attracting nearly 10.5 million viewers. Some attribute this being due to the fact that the 2016 UEFA Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid was shown at the same time as the final, the first time that the two events had ever clashed.[44]

Controversies[edit]
David Walliams' marriage[edit]
During the auditions, Williams claimed that Cowell had not married his girlfriend, Lauren Silverman, to which Cowell responded saying: "Well, why aren't you married?" (referring to the recent divorce between him and his ex-wife, Lara Stone). This statement shocked the audience as well as Walliams. It seemed Walliams was hurt by Cowell's comment. One source said:
"David was a little caught out by the comment. While they were waiting for the next act to come out, he went to talk to Simon. He sat on the desk next to him and they had a few words with each other and seemed to sort it out."[46]
Sources suggest that during the auditions 'tensions were high' between the two men and the crew were betting on whether Walliams might exit this series. Walliams ended up returning as a judge the following year.
Stephen Mulhern[edit]
On Britain's Got More Talent, Mulhern became embroiled in controversy after staging a quiz that reportedly left Cowell "fuming". The reason being was that Mulhern gave out dalmatian puppies as prizes and Cowell discovered they were trembling, leading him to speak to the dogs' owners to check their well-being. In response to the subsequent backlash, Mulhern formally apologised for the stunt.[47][48]
In addition to the dalmatian incident, Mulhern defended some minor controversy after viewers complained contestant Rachael Wooding should've not been allowed to complete in the show when it transpired Wooding already had a professional career.[49]
