When sisters Suzanne (25) and Roxanne (33) walked out onto the Britain’s Got Talent stage, they weren’t just singing for the judges—they were honoring the woman who inspired them to follow their dreams: their mother, Agnes.
The two working sisters—a recruitment coordinator in construction and an NHS worker—had kept their audition a complete secret from their family. Standing under the stage lights, they explained that their mother had drummed a passion for singing into them since childhood, prompting them to finally step up and take their chance.
A Soulful Performance of Stormzy’s Anthem
Taking a huge vocal leap, the duo performed an emotional cover of Stormzy’s hit “Blinded By Your Grace.”
Their stripped-back harmony and raw, honest delivery immediately captivated the room. Amanda Holden commended their beautiful interpretation of the track, expressing hope that Stormzy himself would see the clip, while Simon Cowell praised the pure, humble quality of their performance.
After securing a unanimous 4 “Yes” votes from the judging panel, the audition took an unexpected turn that left the entire arena cheering.

The Live Phone Call to Mum
Before the sisters could leave the stage, Simon Cowell decided to take the surprise a step further. Pulling out his phone, he dialed their mother, Agnes, live right from the judges’ desk!
When Agnes answered, Simon casually asked if she knew where her daughters were. Upon realizing who was calling—and hearing that Suzanne and Roxanne had just earned four yeses—their mother broke down in tears of pride over the phone line.
