One of the acts on this week’s episode was 13-year-old Lilliana Clifton from Liverpool.

School girl Lilly told the judges she had been dancing from the age of four before going on to perform to the song Train Wreck by James Arthur.

After the audition, Bruno enthused: “You are a powerhouse of drama, what a performance! You’re a dramatic actress as well as a fantastic dancer. Out of this world.”

Alesha agreed: “Where does all that passion come from? Technically I’ve not seen anything like that for a long, long time. I’m quite speechless really.”

Amanda added: “You were like the speed of a hummingbird, it just looked incredible.”

Simon concluded: “You can tell you’ve put in the work, if I could score it a 10.”

With four yeses, Lilly sailed through to the next round

Other acts on this weekend’s episode included a Rubik’s cube artist and a chair-stacking daredevil.

On the show contestants must get three or more yeses to make it through in the second round where they could make the live semi-finals.
