Visually impaired Sirine Jahangir (age 15) sends shivers down spines with an incredibly moving and personal rendition of Ruelle’s “Carry You” during the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent 2020 (Series 14).
Sirine couldn’t help but cry towards the end of her performance. BGT judges gave her a standing ovation for her heart-wrenching rendition, but she lost the judges’ vote and is awaiting public vote results. Magical Bones won the judges’ vote for the night, joining Steve Royle and Aaron & Jasmine, who have previously advanced to the Finals via the judges’ vote.

Britain’s Got Talent (aka BGT) is a televised British talent show competition, and part of the global Got Talent franchise created by Simon Cowell. It is hosted by Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly (also known as Ant and Dec), and produced by both Thames (formerly Talkback Thames) and Syco Entertainment, distributed by Fremantle, and broadcast on ITV every year. The show premiered on June 9, 2007 following the success of America’s Got Talent the previous year.
Every year, contestants of any age can audition for the contest with whatever talent they wish to demonstrate. Auditionees seek to impress a panel of judges – at present, consisting of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and David Walliams – in order to secure a place in the live rounds of BGT. The winner gets a cash prize and a place within that year’s performances for the Royal Variety Performance before members of the British Royal Family.
On average, Britain’s Got Talent draws 9.9 million viewers per series. A spin-off titled Britain’s Got Talent: The Champions, featuring the same judges and hosts, was later produced and broadcast in 2019, following the success of the American edition’s spin-off America’s Got Talent: The Champions. Britain’s Got Talent is contracted to run until 2024.
Britain’s Got Talent 2020 (Season 14) aired in two parts, the first in April 2020 with pre-recorded audition episodes, while the second containing the live rounds aired in September 2020. The series was split into two parts because of the Covid-19 pandemic or coronavirus outbreak and the resulting lockdown issued by the British government.
Before the semi-finals were to begin, Simon Cowell sustained a back injury following an electric bike accident, and was replaced by Ashley Banjo as a stand-in.
