A JCOSS pupil is part of group of young magicians who have made it to the Britain's Got Talent live final on Sunday.

4MG wowed the judges on Tuesday's semi-final. One of them was Josh Hennes, 17, from Cockfosters, who has been performing magic since he was seven and whose stage name is Josh Horus.

Their performance involved guidign the judges through a series of simple actions - such as writing down a word of their choosing or picking a numbered ball from a jar - only for the group to reveal they had predicted exactly what choices they would make, which led to a surprise appearance by former contestants Stavros Flatley.

Judge Simon Cowell said of them: "I’ve never seen an act like this before. It was amazing. I really like you guys.” 

He and the other members - James Samuel, Harry Nardi and Theo Mallalieu - will now compete in the live final on Sunday, where the winner will be decided by public vote.
