Britain’s Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon was seen welling up as she admitted being emotional after listening to a singing group comprised of frontline workers perform on the show.
The former chart-topped couldn’t control her emotions when the troupe – made up of paramedics, doctors, police officers and other frontline workers from the Covid-19 pandemic – took to the stage to sing their original song.
It wasn’t just the judges who found themselves overcome listening to the tune – with audience members and viewers at home also finding themselves reduced to tears by the emotional performance.
The impressive vocals conveyed the message of solidarity, loss and sadness contained in the lyrics perfectly as The Frontline Singers gave Strange Old World its TV debut.
