Saturday night's golden buzzer act on Britain's Got Talent moved viewers to tears with their stunning performance of Naughty Boy's Wonder featuring Emeli Sande. Theatre company Chickenshed received a standing ovation and the coveted golden buzzer from judge Alesha Dixon in the third episode of the new series (April 22).
After the golden confetti rained down on them, sending them straight through to the semi-finals of the ITV talent show, head judge Simon Cowell told Chickenshed that he had been waiting years for them to do Britain's Got Talent. He admitted he had known about them for 'a long time time' as he heaped praise on their powerful audition in the hope of winning a place on stage at the Royal Variety Performance.
"I've known about Chickenshed for a long time and I've always wondered when's the year you're going to come on Britain's Got Talent," he said.
