Any Dream Will Do judge and former leading man, John Barrowman has tipped the two Scottish contestants, Craig Chalmers and Keith Jack, as contenders for the shows final.

“I think the standard of talent is excellent, particularly Craig and Keith, who are both good Scottish boys. All the other boys in general are all of a very good standard and high quality,” Barrowman told the Daily Record.

“I always remain impartial but I’m thrilled that two Scottish boys are getting close to the final. But it’s Scotland, you know what I mean. They’re the two cans of Irn Bru up on stage.

“I can see a leading man in some of them. I can see careers in some of them, but none has gone, wow. They don’t have that showbiz factor yet.”
