Are you sure we're in the right place?
Yeah, positive.
I spoke to Amanda to see what the judges were up to
and she said, "Greece is the word."
Well, let's just enjoy a taste of Greece, then. Yep.

Are you ready?
You know what, yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready, I'm actually ready.
The best outcome, for me, is no red buttons.
I think you can win, honestly. You reckon I can win?
It's getting close to the time now, I'm getting really nervous.
My heart's like, uh-uh-uh.
We are The Brit Kidz, we're a dance group from Port Talbot.

You couldn't have guessed it, could you?
When I say, "What does it mean?",
I mean, are you, like, singers or dancers?
We're dancers. You're dancers, great.
And how do you split the money if you win?
I think we would probably go on a big holiday together as a family.
Are you gonna win? Hopefully!
OK, no more questions. Good luck.

# What I want you've got
# It might be hard to handle. #
Aw, I love it!
Well, well, well, well, well.
We weren't expecting that.
Let me go to Amanda.
Do you know, it was literally like watching our lives
flash in front of our eyes. Like a greatest hits. Yes.
Alesha. Oh, your energy is amazing, I really loved it.
All of you put in such hard work and time and dedication to this,
and I felt that. So, well done.
ALL: Thank you!
David.
We loved it because it was about us. LAUGHTER
The wedding was very moving, I thought, as well.

All right. Let me kick this off with a big, fat yes!
CHEERING
Alesha.
It's a yes from me.
Amanda.
Definitely a yes from me, well done.
You've got four yeses.

# I've been waiting for you, girl
# Oh, yeah
# You make my dreams come true
# Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh... #
I have to say, about this show, the acts feel home-grown.
Yes, I like that. You know what I mean?
It's like they've done something specifically for this,
and I like that.
Listen, go and celebrate, you did a great job.
That way. Well done, everybody.
# You make my dreams come true. #
Gonna go out there and kick it!
You ready to come and perform? Yes.

PRODUCER: Happy? Happy, everyone?
LAUGHTER
My name's Dante, I'm 13 years old and I'm from Liverpool.
# Welcome to Wonderland, Look where you're at... #
Are you excited about performing in the Palladium? Yes.
What do you think's gonna be the most nerve—wracking bit for you?
Speaking in front of that massive crowd.
I'm Rachel, I'm Dante's mum.
Dante was born with brittle bone,
which obviously prohibits him doing a lot of things in life.
Erm, well, it's meant to stop him, but it kind of doesn't stop him.
I have broken 97 bones so far.
Everyone says you can wrap me in bubble wrap
and it still won't protect me.
Remember, be yourself.
Mum's super proud.
Dante, he just, like, melts me heart.
Don't make me cry again.
He just doesn't let anything stop him,
he just fights and shines in everything that he does.
# Laughing Till the morning comes... #
Today, I'm gonna be sending a message
that you don't need to let your disability stop you.
Dante! What are you doing for us today?
I'm singing. You're singing?
Just don't give up on your dreams cos one day, they will come true.
Listen, they're ready if you are. Are you ready to do it?
Yep. Yeah?
It's all yours. Onto the star. Good luck, pal.
Have fun out there.
# Now that I must leave
# With a heavy heart
# Oh, Wonderland
# I love. #
Hello.
What's your name?
My name's Dante.
Oh, I love that name. How old are you, Dante?
13 years old. Are you supposed to be at school at this minute?
Yes, I am, but... LAUGHTER
However...
Yeah. Do they know why?
Not really, no. Ooh.
OK. LAUGHTER
We'll keep it a secret. HE LAUGHS
And what is the reason that you decided
to come on Britain's Got Talent?
So, I was born with brittle bone disease
and I've came on Britain's Got Talent
to show other people like myself
that even if you've got some sort of disability or disadvantage,
that you can go as far as your imagination wants to take you.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
How would you spend the money if you won Britain's Got Talent?
I would buy my mum a giant house.
ALL: Aw! Is that who's in the wings, your mum?
Yes, I wouldn't go anywhere without her.
Well, the stage is yours. Good luck.
Thank you.
Oh, bless him.
# I am just 13 years old
# I've broken 97 bones
# The hospital's my second home
# But I just wanna say
# Don't feel sorry for me
# Cos I feel sorry for you
# I get to go on the rides In Disneyland
# While you're stood In the queue... #
LAUGHTER
# Don't be surprised If your girl gets home
# And you find my number In her phone
# No, don't
# Don't feel sorry for me
RAPS: # I've been in Buckingham Palace
# I've rode up and down
# The closest you'll get Is watching The Crown... #
LAUGHTER
# When you wait for a train In the cold and damp
# I'll be getting on first Up my cute little ramp
# When I got my new wheels They looked so ace
# I was happy like Simon When he got his new face
# So, so, so
# So
# Don't feel sorry for me
# Cos I feel sorry for you
# Last birthday I blew 13 candles out
# Simon had 62!
# Now I'm here on your TV
# Ripping it up on BGT
# So don't
# Don't feel sorry for me. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
You are very naughty.
That's brilliant! Yes! Very nice.
God, why did I get it?
LAUGHTER
Me and Dante know each other. Oh, do you?
We've met a few times,
cos he said, "Could you write a book about a boy in a wheelchair?"
And I dedicated it to Dante. Is that why you didn't insult him?
LAUGHTER
Did you write that song yourself?
Yes, in lockdown. It really captured you,
how cheeky you are, how special you are,
and how much you do to inspire others, too.
So I loved it, Dante. Thank you, that means so much.
Yeah, you're amazing.
Very, very cheeky. Your laugh is really naughty as well, isn't it?
LAUGHTER
What is there not to love about you? Well done, Dante.
Thank you.
Comedy often has to make you think or make you go,
"Oh, God, are we allowed to say that?"
And that's when it's the best comedy.
That was a really funny song, well done. Thank you.
Yeah, you know what, it was just a great audition.
And if we put you through to the next round,
can I help you write the lyric about someone on this panel?
You'll have to wait and see. LAUGHTER
I always say a great audition is one you're gonna remember,
and I'm gonna remember this, it was great.
Can I be the first to say yes, please?
# And I'll be gone Gone tonight... #
It's a yes from me, Dante.
I'm saying yes, Dante.
And it's a yes from me, so that's four yeses, well done.
# The story of my life I take her home... #
Thank you!
# To keep her warm And time... #
Brilliant! Well-deserved.
What a lovely boy. Such a lovely boy.
What more can you ask for as a parent?
There are nice people in this world.
Not on this panel, but in the world there are, yeah.
What just happened?!
I'll tell you what happened, you got four yeses, my friend. Yay!

My name's Louise Geller.
I'm 29 years old, I come from Bath, and I work as a doctor.
I worked for two years as a junior doctor
in different specialties,
and then I took some time out
and I applied for the music colleges in the UK,
and I got a place,
and I went to study opera performance.
And whilst I was doing that, I also kept working in A&E,
so, yeah, it's tough at times.

So, I'm gonna say no.
BOOING

I think today I'm gonna say no. AUDIENCE: Aww!
I'm so sorry. And we've got to remember,
we're looking for an act that can go on live television,
that can sing for the royal family.
He'd be great on live television. LAUGHTER
So, are you saying no, David? Yeah, no I'm gonna say no today.
Nice to meet you all.
I can see why he didn't say anything.
There's a lot of pressure on him.
I mean, that was hilarious.
Aw, he didn't quite do it today. Jasper! No.
Stage fright. Yeah, exactly.
This is a bad start for dogs, though, right?
LAUGHTER
# God only knows What I'd be without you... #
My name is Amber, and this is my dog Nymeria,
and we are from Holland.
I dance with my dogs.
Yes!
Nymeria is my best friend.
She's kind of tied to me, and I am to her.
She gets all the attention from everyone.
I would love to perform for the royal family.
That would be the best thing ever. LAUGHS
Yeah.
Oh, she's gonna lie down!

Ready, sit.

She's a border collie. Wow.
Gorgeous colouring. Thank you.
And where are you both from? We're from Holland?
OK, and how...

Why have you come on Britain's Got Talent?
Oh, it's always been our biggest dream
to achieve something like this,
and now standing here, I'm almost crying.
Oh! I'm so thankful to be here.
Thank you.
How old is Nymeria? She's two years old.
And how often do you kind of rehearse?
Mostly every day.
This routine took, like, seven or eight months.
Wow. OK, this next two minutes could change your life.
Good luck. Thank you.
Are you ready, girl? Ready? Twist!
Twist! Yes!
Sit. Good girl.

it's a very talented owner, too.
And the chemistry you have is absolutely fantastic.
Thank you.

You know I love dog acts,
but this was in a different league.
I mean, it's the best dog act
we've had since Ashleigh and Pudsey.
Wow, thank you so much.
And I could tell the dog was smart before we started.
I read this article the other day where they're saying that in years,
collies will evolve so quickly
that they could be, like, a dentist or something.
LAUGHTER
Where is he reading that? In the Be a no?
This is, I think, proof of that.
This is proof that a dog can do dentistry?

So, Axel, what made you sign up for BGT this year?
I've got a 12-year-old son, he's in the audience.
Nice. Yeah.
Hi!
So I just wanted him to believe in yourself, you know?
Put your mind to it and you can make it happen.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And do you have a day job?
Yes, I do property maintenance.
If you need a kitchen done, Simon, let me know.
I do actually, Axel. Give me a call.
I will. Good.
I want a good rate.
No, no. LAUGHTER
Come on, we're friends now.
Yeah, OK, cool. Press that and we're cool, yeah?
LAUGHTER
HE LAUGHS
I'm really curious with you, cos you've got your day job,
this obviously is what you wanna do. Has there ever been a moment
where you've almost lost your confidence and thought,
"I'm not gonna do this?" 100%. 100%.
There's been that time.
But when you have family that's looking out at you
and inspired by you, that's what keeps you going.
So, my son and my daughter, that's the reason.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
All right, well, we wish you the best of luck.
Go for it.
How are we doing, ladies and gentlemen? Make some noise.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I was gonna drive here today.
I realised I don't have a licence, so...
Don't worry, I drove anyways, I drove anyways.
LAUGHTER
I took the Tube, I took the Tube.
I've got a love/hate relationship with the Tube.
I love when it's empty, I hate when it's packed.
I can't stand it. Fight people off of the armrests.
Have you ever done that?
No, you don't.
This old lady's strong.
LAUGHTER
Have it, have it, Margaret, have it.
LAUGHTER
Some people do their make-up on the Tube as well.
Make some noise if you've ever done your make-up on the Tube?
CHEERING Legend.
A couple of weeks ago I saw a woman, she was doing her whole make-up,
a few stops later she was a whole new person.
I was so impressed, I started clapping.
I was, like, "You know what? Yeah, you know?"
She looked down on me, like...
HE IMITATES SCOFF
I thought, "Huh? You may be a nine out of ten now,
"but you was a -2 at King's Cross, love."
LAUGHTER
Boom! Yeah.
LAUGHTER
THEY LAUGH
I walked off the train like this.
In style, yeah.
On a brighter note,
just recently, my fiancee gave birth to a little baby girl.
CHEERING
Don't clap, Simon, don't clap.
I didn't say the baby's mine, did I?
LAUGHTER
I'm joking, she's mine!
Pandemic baby as well. Aw!
Yeah, so I wanted to give her a fitting name.
So we named her Pfizer. LAUGHTER
I call her Pfi-eesha. LAUGHTER
Oh, he's very good.
Technology is moving at such a crazy speed.
Evolving crazy. You've got the Metaverse,
you know, you've got crypts currency.
I still get excited about my contact less card when I use it.
LAUGHTER
I do. When I use it... beep!
Whoa-oh-oh! I love the noise.
I've got a jacket with a pocket on the arm,
sometimes I'll leave my card in the arm.
And I'll pay with my arm. LAUGHTER
Just to confuse the cashier.
"That will be £19.13."
Beep.
LAUGHTER
AXEL IMITATES GASP
Next week I'm going back, I'm gonna leave my card in my back pocket.
"That'll be £22.60."
Boom!
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
Yeah, yeah. THEY LAUGH
Then I walk off...
in style.
LAUGHTER
Yeah.
Who's in a happy relationship? Make some noise.
CHEERING
Me and my fiancee have been together for years.
Years, years, years. And my friends ask me,
"How do you do it? How do you keep it going for so long?
"Through the pandemic, baby..."
And I just say you find your woman that, you know, loves you,
understands your flaws,
and find your woman has a good sense of humour.
Just make sure those three women don't find out about each other.
LAUGHTER
That's the trick. But we don't really have issues.
In fact, the biggest issue we have is,
I hate it when she would imitate my voice in an argument,
and it sounds nothing like my voice!
