Over the weekend, Maxwell Thorpe was sent off into the semi-finals with four yeses and a standing ovation with his rendition of Italian classic Caruso.

The 34-year-old has been tipped as favourite to win at bookies BetVictor, with odds of 7/4.

And tonight he didn’t disappoint with a powerful performance that saw him go through to the final on Sunday.

Others through are teen ventriloquist Jamie Leahy and magician Junwoo.
