A young dancer overcame years of homophobic bullying to pursue his passions and become the rising star of the Britain's Got Talent stage.
Adam Behn, 11, from Runcorn, forms one fifth of the 5 Star Boys dance group, whose incredible moves saw them through to the final of this year's BGT competition. Their final performance, to David Bowie's "Heroes", was inspired by how they supported one another through tough times, as they had faced hurtful remarks from their peers over their love of dance.
While Adam and his friends did not win the talent show (losing the top spot to comedian Axel Blake), their determination to beat the bullies and follow their dreams has now been celebrated, as they have each been awarded special silver Blue Peter badges.
