Elsewhere, things took an emotional turn for Alesha's golden buzzer act Flintz and T4ylor when rapper Flintz forgot some of the lyrics to his self-wrote song - to which Taylor provided the piano backing.

Simon echoed: 'I thought this was your best performance so far. It reminded me of how much it means to you - and your friendship.'
