Britain’s Got Talent: Coventry cheerleaders prepare for semi-final

A team of cheerleaders said they wanted to put on a high-energy performance and inspire others in their sport in the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent.

Coventry Dynamite’s Lady Grenades will take to the stage to perform for judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli during the live broadcast of the ITV talent show on Tuesday.

The crowd were promised by the group an appearance that would highlight the athleticism, artistry and team spirit of the team they said “define this exhilarating sport”.

The team won plaudits in the first round of the competition and received a yes from all four judges, with Cowell describing them as “absolutely brilliant”.
