Stunned judges at the show

Teletubbies surprised the judges of Britain's Got Talent when they turned up to audition for the show in London.

On Saturday's episode Tinky-Winky, Dipsy, Laa Laa and Poe surprised Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon with a very mature and dynamic performance.

The Teletubbies performed to their popular tracks as well, Best Song Ever by One Direction and Single Ladies by Beyonce Giselle Knowles-Carter.

It's worth noting that Simon Cowell was pleasantly surprised, as Teletubbies was one of his first artist contracts.

Moreover, Simon Cowell and Teletubbies have worked together since 1997 on a song such as Teletubbies Say 'Eh-oh!', which sold more than one million copies and also stayed in the top 75 for 29 weeks.

And, of course, it's no surprise that Britain's Got Talent's favourite TV characters got a 'yes' from all the judges on the show.

However, this year Teletubbies is celebrating its 25th anniversary.

Also, as a matter of fact, the role of Tinky-Winky has been played by the likes of Dave Thompson, Mark Heenehan and Simon Shelton over the years.

Teletubby Dipsy was at one time played by comedian and actor John Simmit, Teletubby Laa Laa was played by Nicola Jane Smedley and Po was played by Pui Fan Lee.

It should be noted that the first episode of Teletubbies appeared on TV on March 31st 1997.
