Comedian David Walliams broke down in tears in last night's episode of Britain's Got Talent. The act, by some rather little performers from Flakefleet Primary School in Lancashire, sang a rendition of Queen's iconic hit 'Don't Stop Me Now'.

The group of enthusiastic school children aged 5-11 sang their hearts out, leaving Walliams to hit the sought after Golden Buzzer in the first episode.

The kids gave a very heartwarming performance, dancing and singing in unison and lighting up the stage with their dazzling smiles and fantastic costumes.

They might not have been the best singers the judges have ever seen as their teacher Mr McPartlin jokingly pointed out, but they sure made the judges and audience emotional watching their performance.

But that wasn't the end of all the tears, host Ant McPartlin was left in tears after one little girl from the group ran up to him and sweetly said she 'missed him' during his break from the show.

As the choir exited the stage, Ant grew emotional as he cradled one little girl who said, 'I missed you Ant,' he then responded that he 'loves her lots'.

He took a break from BGT last year after his arrest for drink-driving, and his on-screen partner Declan Donnelly was left to host the show solo for the first time in the show's history.

However, now that Ant is back at work, the Geordie duo reunited to present Saturday night's episode, with Ant starring in the brand new trailer.

For the eighth series running, the Britain's Got Talent judging panel remained the same. Comedian David Walliams, singer Alesha Dixon, and Amanda Holden all joined head judge Simon Cowell behind their red buzzers as they look for the best talent in Britain.

Music mogul Simon Cowell has been a judge on the show alongside Amanda Holden since the first series way back in 2007.
