The group of six children are aged between six and 13, and came from impoverished backgrounds in Uganda's capital Kampala before being taken in and cared for by their guardian-turned-manager Dauda Kavuma.

Ghetto Kids was among the 10 finalists in the competition – which was won by Viggo Venn, a 33-year-old comedian from Norway. The second place was taken by 13-year-old dancer Lilliana Clifton while magician Cillian O’Connor, 14, came third.

The Ugandan group already made history after becoming the first act to be given a "golden buzzer" by one of the judges before they had even finished their performance - which sent them straight to the semi-final.

They then received the most public votes, giving them a place at the final alongside nine other contestants.

It has added to the group's already considerable fame - the Ghetto Kids already had millions of YouTube views under their belts before joining the UK talent show, and featured in a music video for US-Moroccan rap star French Montana in 2017.
