Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden has a secret skill she’s been hiding – she can do impressions.
And she can do a mean one of daytime TV favourite Lorraine Kelly, which she showcases on Saturday’s BGT episode.
The panel are wowed by comedienne and impressionist Suzy Wilde.
She has been on the circuit since 2010 and even done The Edinburgh Festival winning fans by taking off the likes of Cheryl Cole, Sharon Osbourne, Kirstie Allsopp, Joanna Lumley and even Gordon Ramsay.
Suzy has the TV judges in stitches mimicking The Queen, Janet Street-Porter and Gemma Collins.
But Amanda then reveals that she could be a comedy contender too.
And she shows off her previously hidden expertise by doing her own version of Scots telly host Lorraine.
A source said: ‘‘It was pretty funny. The judges couldn’t stop laughing at her impersonation.’’
Also on the show is a guitarist and singer who auditions in a dustbin performing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life.
Amanda is not impressed with the ‘‘bin busker’’ though and says: “This is a bit of rubbish.’’

In November 2020, Amanda shocked her Heart FM co-stars with an Margaret Thatcher impression.
She performed the impression as she was talking to co-hosts Jamie Theakston with showbiz reporter Ashley Roberts, 39, about the then latest series of Netflix series The Crown, in which actress Gillian Anderson stars as the former PM.
Amanda said in the Thatcher’s voice: “I really like her [Gillian Anderson] as Margaret Thatcher.”
Ashley then responds: ‘Oh my god, that’s so good!’
The former Wild At Heart actress explained: ‘I used to do that when I was eight – only with Gladys Pugh from Hi-De-Hi.’
