Married 'Talent' hopefuls face dilemma

A married couple faced a dilemma at the Britain's Got Talent auditions after the judges told them to ditch the singing element of their variety act.

Sam and Vicky Lane, who perform under the name of Vizage, attended the Blackpool auditions and explained how they hoped success in the competition could change their lives.

"Doing the variety circuit is very hard work, we have always wanted to start a family but we always seem to be putting it off because of work," Sam revealed. "If we were to win this we could at last think about starting a family of our own."

The pair faced judges Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden and explained the concept of their quick change act, which sees Vicky working her way through a variety of different outfits at lightning speed. After they were invited to start the act, everything appeared to be going well - until Vicky started singing Madonna's hit track 'Material Girl'.

"If you had come out here and just sang that song you would have lasted five seconds, you are not a very good singer," Cowell explained afterwards. "If you promise not to sing again we will put you through."

However, the pair were stunned by the criticism and reluctant to axe the singing element, explaining: "We have been doing our vocal illusion act for six years and your are the first people that have ever said that."

Tune in to Britain's Got Talent at 8.05pm on ITV1 tonight to see if Sam and Vicky decide to take the judges' advice.
