  • 0:03 - 0:05
    Very best of luck off you go.
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    OK. Thank you.
  • 0:08 - 0:11
    [Audience cheers]
  • 0:11 - 0:12
    Simon: Just when you thought things
  • 0:12 - 0:14
    couldn't be getting worse.
  • 0:14 - 0:15
    Hello.
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    Charlotte: Hi
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    Jonathan: Hi
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    Cowell: Hi, how are you?
  • 0:19 - 0:20
    Charlotte: I'm fine thanks, how are you?
  • 0:20 - 0:21
    Simon: Good. Nice to met you.
  • 0:21 - 0:22
    What's your act called?
  • 0:22 - 0:23
    Charlotte: Charlotte & Jonathan
  • 0:23 - 0:24
    Simon: Charlotte & Jonathan?
  • 0:24 - 0:26
    Okay, how old are you both?
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    Charlotte: I'm 16
  • 0:28 - 0:29
    Jonathan: And I'm 17.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    Cowell: OK. And and you thought the
  • 0:31 - 0:34
    combination would work, whose idea was it?
  • 0:34 - 0:35
    Charlotte: It was our singing teacher's,
  • 0:35 - 0:37
    actually. She thought it would be good to
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    try us out together. And we both sounded
  • 0:39 - 0:41
    quite good when we sang what we did.
  • 0:41 - 0:44
    Simon: Ok. Your not saying much Jonathan?
  • 0:44 - 0:45
    Are you shy?
  • 0:45 - 0:46
    Jonathan: Ahhh....
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    sometimes.
  • 0:48 - 0:50
    I've always had problems with my size,
  • 0:50 - 0:53
    since, like, I can remember. And when I
  • 0:53 - 0:54
    was in, sort of, primary school, it was
  • 0:54 - 0:56
    back then that I really had sort of had
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    the meat taken out of me and it kind of
  • 0:58 - 1:00
    damaged my confidence quite a bit.
  • 1:00 - 1:03
    When people would say something to me, it
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    would take a little piece out of me in
  • 1:05 - 1:06
    a sense.
  • 1:07 - 1:08
    Charlotte: I'm quite protective of
  • 1:08 - 1:10
    Jonathan like if someone
  • 1:10 - 1:11
    if I was there and someone stood there
  • 1:11 - 1:14
    and said something to him I wouldn't sit
  • 1:14 - 1:16
    back I couldn't sit there with my mouth
  • 1:16 - 1:17
    shut before you make a judgment on someone
  • 1:17 - 1:19
    you really need to get to know them,
  • 1:19 - 1:21
    It's not judging a book by it by cover
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    book you have got to read what's inside.
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    Jonathan: Charlotte has been a really big
  • 1:25 - 1:26
    help for me in terms of confidence and
  • 1:26 - 1:28
    making me a better performer and I really
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    don't think I'd be going up on stage today
  • 1:30 - 1:32
    if I didn't have Charlotte by my side.
  • 1:34 - 1:36
    Simon: And do you think you could win?
  • 1:36 - 1:38
    Charlotte: Ya, together, yes.
  • 1:41 - 1:43
    Simon: Alright, good luck.
  • 1:43 - 1:44
    Charlotte & Jonathan: Thank you
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    Technician: Here we go.
