Celebrity impressionist Francine Lewis failed in her bid to win Britain's Got Talent on Saturday night, despite promising "to perform like I've never performed before" and winning lavish praise from the judges.

Hungarian shadow-mime artists Attraction claimed top spot in the final of the ITV talent show. They win a prize of £250,000 and the opportunity to perform at the Royal Variety Show.

Ms Lewis's act, which included impressions of Stacey Solomon, Katie Price and Geri Halliwell, prompted the judging panel to call her "a genius, so clever and talented".

Simon Cowell said: "I really think we saw a star emerging tonight".
