"Tonight’s show ended with a classic BGT moment that will have had millions around the country biting their bottom lip and reaching for the tissues.
By day 37 year-old Jamie Pugh is a warehouse worker, by night he delivers pizzas, but this existence is a far cry from the life he wishes he could live, one where is phenomenal talent is accepted and appreciated by other people.
“I’m just a simple bloke from the valleys,” said Jamie in the holding room before he went onstage: “All I want to do is sing.”
However excruciating stage fright had always prevented Jamie from fulfilling his dream, singing in public has always been a massive problem for him and he’d not slept for three nights leading up to his audition because of his nerves.
Physically shaking Jamie stood in front of the 3,000-strong audience and said:
“I’m going to sing Bring Him Home from Les Miserables… well I’m going to try.”
“Have you ever sung in front of an audience before?” Simon asked.
“No,” was Jamie’s simple reply." - jamiepugh.net
