The choir, which was founded by former host and Prime Video star Jeremy, 65, performed as part of the semi-final in front of Simon, 66, and his fellow judges , and . 

Singing Bastille's Pompeii, they blew fans away with their rendition and were awarded a place in this weekend's coveted final thanks to the public vote. 

But it didn't stop Simon from passing his judgement of the choir, and he took an opportunity to make a cheeky jibe towards Jeremy in the process. 

Following their semi-final performance, Simon told the choir: 'You're not a professional choir, however I love what you stand for.

'It might be quite annoying to see Jeremy Clarkson's smug face, that's the only downside. He's a friend of mine.'

Simon concluded: 'However more importantly this is about you and you did brilliantly well. Congratulations.'

The choir, which is now run by farmers Simon Gwilliam and Lizzy Dean, was originally set up by Jeremy after searching for singing agricultural workers to appear in an advert for his Hawkstone beer range.

Despite Simon hinting earlier in the show that the choir had been 'tipped to win', the farming singers were still stunned when their names were called for the final. 

Speaking to hosts and the group explained how they'd been inspired to sing in a bid to help other farmers struggling with loneliness and mental health issues. 

Jeremy shared his excitement at seeing the choir make it through to the final in a video posted to social media, which saw him celebrating with Clarkson's Farm co-star Kaleb Cooper.

The duo filmed themselves congratulating the singers in front of a cheering crowd at Farm Fest.

Britain's Got Talent fans on social media are convinced The Hawkstone Choir will bag the win this year following the semi-final performance.
