Tonight's (May 10) fifth round of Britain's Got Talent auditions included familiar faces, an impressive light display and 'do not try this at home' trampolining.
Judge Alesha Dixon wasn't impressed with Dylan's enthusiastic dance moves but soon cheered up when Lauren Platt's brother Lewis took to the stage with his dance group Entity Allstars.
Alesha thought the act was Golden Buzzer worthy, but did Twitter agree?

Can you believe The Apprentice is ten years old today? Yep, back on February 16th 2005 the UK was introduced to Suralan, Nick and Margaret and a batch of candidates hoping to become the next big thing at Amstrad.
Things have changed a bit since then - it's no longer Suralan but now Lord Sugar, the prize has changed to a £250,000 investment, and neither Nick or Margaret will be there next series. But one thing's for sure - the candidates will still be entertainingly barmy.
To celebrate The Apprentice's tenth birthday, we thought we'd take a little trip down memory lane and pick out just ten of our most memorable candidates. Obviously, there are a whole bunch that could have made it into this list, so let us know who you would have picked below! And so, in no particular order...
1. Ruth Badger

We might have started with 20 candidates on The Apprentice, but we're now down to just two. Lord Sugar's been more brutal than ever, but now he's got to show his nicer side as he picks either Bianca Miller or Mark Wright to receive a £250,000 investment in their business plan.
Bianca's into hosiery, Mark's into digital marketing, and tonight they're both going to launch their businesses in an attempt to prove they've got what it takes. But who'll walk away the victor? We're about to find out, so join us from 9pm when the show starts as we bring you all the action...
23:00But that's that! The Apprentice is over for another series. Seriously, though, when does the next one start? Thanks for joining us!
22:58As a parting gift, Dara gives Mark some cough mixture. Obviously.
22:58Tom, Ricky and Leah are in the audience talking up their businesses.

Some of the male Big Brother housemates became webcam boys yesterday - and these pictures prove that it's not a career they should be pursuing.
Following in evictee Danielle McMahon's footsteps, Christopher Hall, Pav Paul and Winston Showan put on their best pout for Bit on the Side reporter Luisa Zissman as part of this week's website shopping task.
The trio were informed that they must carry out everything Luisa ordered - and if her requests were anything to go by, she has some very unusual tastes.
First to try and please Luisa was Christopher, who was asked to put on a pig costume and get on all fours.
Given that he was also told to declare "Hi Queen Luisa, I'm your little piggy!", we're not sure we're going to be able to watch the whole thing.
Next up was Winston, who slipped into his best red thong for the occasion.

Housemates will embrace everything to do with the internet in this week's shopping task.
Big Brother has created its own version of the world wide web for the task and will be relying on the public to help decide the fate of the shopping budget.
A giant laptop will be placed in the house, and when housemates are needed they will enter a task room that's decorated like different websites. It will then look like the housemates are 'inside' the internet.
For housemates to pass the overall task, they need to gain enough hits over the two days.
In the first task, housemates will be given costumes and props before recording a 20-second video, with the aim of it going viral.
The public hold the power in this task as for housemates to receive the maximum amount of hits they are required to meet a certain amount of 'likes'.

Luisa Zissman thinks Katie Hopkins should go on 'Celebrity Big Brother'. The 27-year-old star, who became a fan favourite in the last series of the Channel 5 reality show, thinks the controversial columnist and former 'Apprentice' contestant would rile up her fellow housemates with her strong opinions. Quizzed who she'd like to go on the next series, Luisa said: ''Katie Hopkins, because she talks and shouts so much she wouldn't let anyone else talk.'' Luisa is also eager for glamour model Katie Price to take part in 'CBB' and thinks the house could do with some comic relief, too. She told Britain's Ok! magazine:...

Luisa Zissman and Blue opening a bar in Ibiza - what could possibly go wrong?
The boyband and former Apprentice star have signed up to film a new television show charting the launch of their venue on the party island, Broadcast says.
The series, which is still thought to be in the early stages, is reportedly planned for ITV's new channel ITVBe - the future home of The Only Way Is Essex and Real Housewives.
According to reports, Zissman will use her business experience to manage the bar while the members of Blue will run it.
The show will reunite Zissman with her former Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lee Ryan, with filming expected to be completed in time for Blue to go on the Big Reunion boyband tour in October.
Meanwhile, recent speculation suggested that ITVBe is considering buying the rights to Big Brother, although the move is considered unlikely.

On Tuesday (June 18) night's show, viewers saw Jale win over the likes of Helen Wood and Toya Washington after a task, which she she took part in with Christopher Hall and Marlon Wallen in the Diary Room, was shown to the rest of the house.

"We have seen her isolated from the group, referred to as 'Slug' and repeatedly ridiculed," said former Apprentice runner-up Zissman. "The icing on the cake? Jale has done nothing to provoke them. It has been very uncomfortable viewing.
"The scenes of torment are just like being in a school playground, and it begs the question as to why adults feel it appropriate to behave like this towards their peers."

The Big Brother house looks like it has come from the future in new photographs released today.
The new compound has been completely redesigned for the upcoming series, which will have a 'Power Trip' theme as housemates battle each other for control.
Channel 5 has also teased that technology will be a big part of the new series, which chimes with the space age design in the new house.
The Diary Room doorbell has gone, and is replaced with a touch pad which will scan housemates' hands when they wish to speak to Big Brother.
Elsewhere, Channel 5 dropped some hints about the large screens throughout the house, saying: "What information will be fed to the housemates and will that data help them play the game?"

Willis and Rylan Clark are in charge of an evil dictatorship in the 60-second promo, complete with rather snazzy uniforms.
Willis complains about everyone being "so nice" and "so happy to please" these days, while Clark adds: "There's something about the nasty, the ruthless."
"I want the plotters, the schemers," Willis continues. "They're so much more fun. After all, there's no I in team."
The video ties in to the show's Power Trip twist this series, which will see the housemates battling for control over things such as evictions, treats and punishments.

Conchita Wurst may have won the Eurovision Song Contest a week ago, but that's how long it's taken Rylan Clark to do his impersonation of the singer live on This Morning.
The 25-year-old reality TV star, who is set to be joined by Luisa Zissman on Big Brother's Bit on the Side this summer, today (May 16) donned a wavy brown wig and a gold sequined dress similar to the one worn by the Austrian singer at the competition in Copenhagen.
He obviously didn't need to fake the trademark beard as he could just use his own.
Rylan then attempted to put on his very best Austrian accent for the daytime show's hosts Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, before sidling up to Holmes and sitting on his knee.
Even Holmes looks embarrassed, and that must take a lot.
And let us not forget Rylan's recent amazing impression of Corrie's Deirdre Barlow getting sent down too.

However, the housemate in power will only have control for so long before someone else becomes the ruler.
The new theme will kick in on launch night and will "dominate the house for the summer", as housemates must be "ruthless" to get power and keep it.
Viewers will also be given the power to manipulate the contestants throughout the series.

Ofcom has ruled that an episode of Celebrity Big Brother broke scheduling regulations.
Five complaints were made about the Sunday, January 19 edition of the Channel 5 programme, which was a repeat of the previous evening's episode.
The complaints referred to sexual references and discussions, which were deemed inappropriate for its transmission time of 11.30am.
The episode's highlights included Ollie Locke and Luisa Zissman making bread shaped like Dappy's penis, and general chats about orgasms and sex.
Channel 5 responded at the time that viewers would have been aware of the show's "cheeky conversation, rude language and mildly sexually suggestive innuendos".
The channel also insisted that the episode was no more than "mildly risqué" and that it was not "highly charged or erotic" and "the explicit reference to orgasm was not aggressive or suggestive".

"Too much time has been spent on what the facts are..."
That stonking Katie Hopkins line came towards the end of the eyeball-scratchingly painful two-hour slog that was The Big British Immigration Row.
It neatly summed up the pointlessness and vile nature of Channel 5's live TV talk show, which it laughably billed as "a timely and robust contribution to this vital national debate".
Hot off the 'success' of the equally tiresome Big British Benefits Row (Why is everything always big? And why is it always a row?), this follow-up was guilty of being even more preposterous, even more ugly and with an extra hour tagged on it, even more boring.
Like walking into a pub and listening to a selection of drunkards furiously debating, 'What came first - the chicken or the egg?', it was flabbergastingly vapid and bewilderingly bad in equal measure. Not that Channel 5 seems to care.
