The group of youngsters took to the stage once again to impress judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams with their emotional tribute to their parents.

After their song, host Ant said ” they’re crying, we’re crying, half the audience is crying. Amanda let’s start with you.”

To which judge Amanda said: “I’ll have to say, I think that was one of the most emotional and courageous peak performances I think I’ve ever seen on Britain’s Got Talent.

“I could see how much emotion there was so many of you are in tears, I hope they’re happy tears because this evening you have done yourselves proud.

“I am so proud of you all, I barely know you but I want to give all of you a massive cuddle because you were brilliant.”

Simon echoed: “I think remembering that all of your mums and dads are in the armed forces and you think about what is going on in the world right now and with the Jubilee.

“It’s so interesting isn’t it how a bunch of really talented kids can make a much stronger message than a bunch of boring politicians.

“That was everything we wanted from you in the final, I’m so proud of all of you and I love the song by the way.”

ITV viewers were also left reaching for the tissues.

One wrote: “@antanddec oh lord those kids I’m in floods. What a great song voices of armed forces children choir #BGT.”

Another posted: “Bloody hell #BritainsGotTalent there crying I’m crying @BGT such emotion from the kids choir.”

A third added: “Oh god this is gonna make me cry #bgt #BritainsGotTalent”
