Welsh choir John’s Boys wowed the judges as they appeared on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent on Saturday, April 29 - even leaving Bruno Tonioli and Amanda Holden in tears. The group, from Rhosllanerchrugog in north Wales, was named after original conductor John Glyn.
“We started six years ago for entertainment really. We’re all friends and family and that’s what it is about,” said one of the choir’s members ahead of their performance. Another described how John’s Boys comprises “teachers, tree-surgeons, welders and car salesmen".
Introducing their act, one member told the judges that they rehearse on a Sunday afternoon in a cowshed. “Do you think you can win?” Simon asked and John’s Boys agreed.
