Ballet dancer James Hobley and impressionist Les Gibson make Britain's Got Talent final

James and Les will perform again on Saturday night

James Hobley moved the judges with his ballet routine

Last night James Hobley and Les Gibson secured their places in the Britain's Got Talent final.

Autistic ballet dancer James, 11, won over the audience and judges with his moving routine to Leona Lewis's song Happy.

'I thought you were absolutely brilliant,' praised show boss Simon Cowell, 51. 

Amanda Holden, 40, agreed: 'You expressed everything tonight. You really moved me.'

Impressionist Les Gibson, 42, was a hit with his recreation of The Apprentice, mimicking celebrities including Lord Alan Sugar, Louis Walsh and Ant and Dec.  

James and Les beat off competition from some strong acts but Thai stripper Wachiraporn Tripakraunchy's performance left the judges red-faced.

'I felt a little like I was on a stag night to be honest,' quipped comedian Michael McIntyre, 35.

Britain's Got Talent is on every day this week on ITV1 at 7.30pm and 9.30pm.
