Britain’s Got Talent stars Les Sancho’s reality TV past revealed amid show fix row over pro acts
BRITAIN'S Got Talent favourite, Les Sancho, is no stranger to reality TV as the show stays embroiled in a 'fix row'.
The eight-person French dance troupe made up of teachers from Marseille got everyone on their feet with their high energy performance full of twists and turns.
Les Sancho gave a fun genre-bending performance full of dazzling moves and humour.
The group described its experience on BGT a "level up", after appearing on the French version of the talent show franchise.
Called La France A Un Incroyable Talent, the dancing lads were so well loved they earned themselves the Golden Buzzer.
While they didn't get Golden Buzzer on the British version, those watching at home argued they were worth of it.
"Should have got golden buzzer," tweeted one viewer.
"Once they started dancing like they did at the start I thought oh god we’ve seen this year after year but when Boubou came out it was a laugh. Really good," added another.

Les Sancho's past success comes amid an ongoing 'fix row' as BGT fans have complained about the number of professional acts on the show.
On the debut show this weekend, pro singer Loren Allred was given the golden buzzer after wowing the judges with her singing voice.
Later revealed as the voice behind The Greatest Showman song Never Enough, the American-born singer went straight to the final thanks to her golden buzzer from Amanda Holden.
Fans furiously took to social media to complain it was "unfair" and dub the show "a fix" as Loren, 32, sailed through.

They also complained when the second golden buzzer went to comedian Axel Blake.
His sharp observational comedy earned him the prestigious Golden Buzzer, but has previously presented on SBTV and UNILAD and gone viral with his comedy sketches.
The dad-of-two even has his own Amazon Prime show called Axel Blake: I'm Not Gonna Lie which he recorded at the Indig02 in London.
"No this is a joke, he’s already got his own show and tours," one viewer tweeted.
But BGT judge and creator Simon Cowell, 62, exclusively told The Sun that there will be LESS professional acts on the show than ever before.
He also hit back that he was pleased acts from all over the world were taking to the stage in the UK as part of the competition.
"This year, there are less professional people," he explained. "That's where we started the show all those years ago.
"We started by opening the show to anyone regardless of a day job or hidden talent that they want to show to the world."
"This is the place to do it and thank god that's the show it's evolved into. We don't really have any rules on it," Simon went on.
"Wherever you're from, whatever you do, you are welcome," the father-of-one added, explaining the "appeal" of the UK show was likely due to the global stage on social media.
"A lot of these acts come on the British or US show after travelling thousand of miles because these clips go viral," Simon said.

"It's not about just being seen in the UK, if those one of these auditions pops it can be seen by hundreds of millions of people.
"When you get those mega clips, your career can kick off. I'm guessing it could happen with the girl who gets the golden buzzer."
