Hopefuls took to the stage on Saturday night for the third round of BGT auditions in the hopes of impressing judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli. Mum Claire took to the stage before announcing to the judging panel and live audience that she was surrendering her audition for her teenage daughter Tia.
