Liverpool talent was front and centre on Saturday night as dancers from\u00a0Liverpool Media Academy (LMA)\u00a0lit up\u00a0Britain\u2019s Got Talent\u00a0and landed a golden buzzer moment that\u2019s sent them straight through to the final.<\/p>\n

The 66-strong group, performing as\u00a0Sadeck Berrabah & LMA, delivered a jaw-dropping, perfectly synchronised routine that had the judges on their feet and it was\u00a0Alesha Dixon\u00a0who sealed the deal.<\/p>\n

After previously saying she would\u2019ve hit the golden buzzer for them at auditions, Alesha didn\u2019t hesitate this time, calling the Liverpool group a \u201cbreath of fresh air\u201d before smashing the buzzer and sending them straight through.<\/p>\n

Fellow judge\u00a0Simon Cowell\u00a0was just as blown away, describing the performance as \u201cgobsmackingly beautiful\u201d and one of the best acts seen on the live shows so far.<\/p>\n

The result means the Liverpool dancers skip the public vote and go straight to the grand final, where they\u2019ll be in with a chance of performing at the Royal Variety Performance and taking home the show\u2019s top prize.<\/p>\n

Kemal Kuguloglu,\u00a0Head of Department (Dance) at LMA\u00a0said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe students are thrilled to be part of the finals of Britain\u2019s Got Talent, and I share their excitement. They have worked tirelessly for weeks to perfect a highly challenging piece of choreography, alongside the added pressure of incorporating props and performing tightly synchronised movements, where any mistake affects the whole group.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe group includes 2nd and 3rd year undergraduate students, as well as postgraduate Master\u2019s students. All have continued to attend their regular classes while preparing for end-of-year performances, alongside the additional rehearsals required to develop an original piece with a renowned choreographer.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe level of professionalism, dedication, and commitment instilled in them throughout their studies at LMA was truly evident when they received the final buzzer. I am incredibly proud of them all.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was a huge moment not just for the group, but for the city too, with LMA once again proving why Liverpool continues to produce some of the UK\u2019s most exciting creative talent.<\/p>\n

The remaining acts will now battle it out for the public vote as the semi-finals continue, but for Liverpool, it\u2019s already been a night to remember.<\/p>\n
