Britain’s Got Talent’s episode this week saw Ben Nickless, a man from Lancashire, take to the stage.
After 20 years of performances, he decided to audition for the talent show.
He started the audition as a ventriloquist with a puppet before beginning a quick fire round of impressions of famous faces and characters, grabbing the audience's attention.
Impressions included Morgan Freeman, Dot Cotton, Marge Simpson, John Bishop and Holly Willoughby.
From Homer Simpson to @hollywills - is there anyone Ben Nickless *can't* do an impression of? 🤣 👏#BGT #BritainsGotTalent pic.twitter.com/UXnKhfpJhm

Then he started to sing in Gary Barlow’s voice, continuing to make the judges and audience laugh.
