Stephen, 45, used to front Britain's Got More Talent on ITV2 and has said he dearly misses doing it.

But he got a rough ride last night when Honey sung a song about Britain's Got Talent.

One verse went: "Ant and Dec now I'm feeling the pressure, they've been jolly good chums forever.

"Stephen Mulhern's not as good as them two, that's why he's not on ITV2."

However, the judges loved her performance, delivering the four yeses she asked for in her song.

Alesha Dixon told her: "What a sweet idea. There's nothing more refreshing that someone standing there, no smoke and mirrors, just with a guitar.

"I really like you, really good."
