Simon Cowell in awe as Britain's Got Talent's Ant and Dec interrupt audition to give 'phenomenal' contestant golden buzzer

Britain's Got Talent's Simon Cowell was left in awe on Saturday after Ant and Dec all but interrupted the end of a "phenomenal" audition to award the act with the fifth and final golden buzzer - meaning they will immediately go through to the live shows - a decision viewers were wholeheartedly in agreement with.

It comes after the four judges, Alesha Dixon, Simon Cowell, Bruno Tonioli and Amanda Holden, already gave their ultimate vote to previous auditionees - including the Chicken Shed Theatre Group and singer Olivia Lynes - meaning Ant and Dec were the final team to give one performer the chance to go straight through.

The 28-year-old from France, whose act is named MB14, wowed viewers at home and the judges with his beatbox performance of a musical composition - but it wasn't just a song he was singing. The performance saw the French man transform his vocal chords into a series of different instruments, creating a piece of music by recording a sound he'd made and repeating it with a looping device alongside other sounds he created then and there. Introducing the audition, he said: "All you're about to hear is made with my voice, I hope you like it."
