BGT's Attraction returns after 9 years with kids - and fans are in floods of tears

Drama troupe Attraction returned to the Britain's Got Talent stage nine years after winning the show - through their kids.

A junior version of the group, from Budapest in Hungary, was formed by the leader of the original group, Szűcs Zoltán.

Appearing on the stage, his son Martin revealed that they were 'Attraction Juniors' and that Zoltán was backstage with Ant and Dec.

Back in 2013, the group left viewers and judges alike in tears over their heartbreaking shadow performance depicting the tragic story of two lovers.

Attraction went on to perform at the Royal Variety Show and achieved huge success after their performance was viewed by millions.

Quizzed on who was better, Martin hesitantly said that they were better as the judges said they "loved that".

The group, aged between 10 and 19, performed an emotive routine to Tomorrow by Marisha Wallace.

The sweet performance focused on bullying and the impact of social media on kids and teens.

The group received a standing ovation, with Amanda Holden saying that she thought the piece was "very relevant" and that she "loved the message".

"It was very simple," she said. "I think you're an absolute inspiration - well done."

While Alesha Dixon gushed: "The fact that you're using what you do, your talents, to make a difference and put out positive messages - I applaud you, I love that you're Attraction Juniors. We fell in love with what came before you and I'm excited about your future now as well."

Viewers were in floods of tears, with one commenting: "@BGT the bullying piece had me in tears - my brothers depression started by being bullied at school for being gay and look what happened to him in adult life - great message #BeKind #BGT."

While another commented: "9 years ago Attration had me in tears, tonight Attraction Juniors had me in tears again. Absolutely beautiful #BGT."

A third wrote: "In actual floods of tears - that was beautifully done. #BGT."

Appearing to notice that some of the group themselves were tearful, Simon Cowell pointed out: "I love this audition. I can actually see how moved a lot of you are - you felt the audience reaction and I love moments like that."

*Britain's Got Talent returns on Monday at 8pm on ITV
