The 15-year-old from brought the laughs to Winter Gardens, cracking up judges , , and a sceptical Simon.

When asked if this was the biggest crowd he’d ever performed to, Jacob said: “I usually perform at my local theatre which is 700 seats but it is never sold out.”

He added: “The dream is to be up there with Lee Evans and all the big comedians.”

With a standing ovation under his belt, the schoolboy is now one step closer to bagging that £250k prize and a spot on the .

Simon admitted: “You are stupid funny, which I like. You did really good and I think the audience liked you. I always listen to the audience so it is a yes.”

However, eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot an awkward moment... but did you notice it?

The episode's editing made a glaring blunder when viewers could hear loud applause and cheering, yet the audience behind the judges remained completely still and silent.

Taking to social media, one viewer said: “The editing of BGT is so irritating. The constant crowd reactions cut and pasted all over the shop.

“You hear mad cheers but the crowd behind the judges are motionless #bgt #britainsgottalent”

Simon said: If you're going to do this, then this obviously means a lot to you, then you've really got to stop overthinking this and just let go.

“That was kind of like a polite audition.”

She replied: “I will fight for this.”

Louise then belted out ‘s hit ballad And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going, which was met with cheers from the audience.

The judges were also equally chuffed with her second song choice.

But some fans were convinced it was a set-up.

One wrote: “These singing auditions on Britain’s Got Talent are so set up sometimes when Simon stops them mid song and ask them to sing something else and they sing again and they’re amazing.”

A second posted: “Ah this old chestnut.”

A third commented: “I couldn’t even hear her for the noisy audience, and it was a set up too, seen dozens like her before.”

Britain's Got Talent is available to watch on ITV1 and ITVX.
