Jeremy Clarkson was seen holding back tears in an emotional video following the Britain’s Got Talent audition success of the Hawkstone Choir.

On tonight’s episode Amanda Holden was left welling up as she hit the Golden Buzzer for The Hawkstone Farmers Choir, an act originally put together by Jeremy Clarkson.

She added: “And that thing is… The Hawkstone Farmers Choir. Jeremy brought us together to sing, and it’s just really been amazing for us all.” The group, consisting of farmers from across the country, left the judges completely stunned. Katryna told Amanda that each member of the group works alone for up to 17 hours per day due to their job.

“As a family, we’ve got one thing that unites us, and that’s farming. We love what we do, but it can be hard,” Katryna said, adding that the choir “meant the world ” to the group. The 32-strong group, with ages ranging from 27 to 74, performed a stunning rendition of One Day Like This by Elbow, prompting Amanda to look emotional just seconds into the performance as the audience roared with applause.

Blown away, Amanda, who was sitting as Head Judge in replacement for Simon Cowell, whacked the Golden Buzzer – meaning the choir are straight through to the semi-finals.

Jeremy Clarkson took to social medai to share his reaction to the chior’s success. He said: “I watched Britian’s Got Talent tonigth for the first time because the Hawkstone Choir were on and they were just fantastic. These guys are all farmers and they work incredibly hard for really incredibly small rewards, and to see them all on that stage with all that love in the room made my heart sing – I actually welled up.”

While visibly holding back tears he went on to thank Amanda Holden for pressing the Golden Buzzer. He added: “It shows that people quite like farmers. They were very very good, well done all of you. I’m a very happy man tonight.”

The short video attracted comments from fellow BGT viewers, one wrote: “I was crying like a baby, the sentiment, the emotion, they’re sensational. They Will Win.” Another wrote: “Truly awesome really heartfelt.”

Speaking about getting the Golden Buzzer, Katryna from Northumberland said: “The choir has turned into something so much more than singing… We have come together as a community, something I didn’t even anticipate. The choir is filled with all sorts of people with varying ages, singing experience, parts of the country, but we all have farming linking us together – it’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before.”

Hugh Thomas, from Pembrokeshire said: “I had to pinch myself – this was really happening to an old boy from Pembrokeshire! Performing on National TV wasn’t something I ever envisaged… More importantly it will shine a light on agriculture, farming and the rural economy.”
