Spelbound: 'Royal Variety's unforgettable' (VIDEO)
Britain's Got Talent winners Spelbound said performing for royalty was 'unforgettable' - as the nation gears up for Friday's Royal Wedding. The gymnastics troupe, currently on screen in the BGT moneysupermarket.com ads, performed at last year's Royal Variety Performance after winning the ITV1 talent show. Alex Uttley said: "Everyone strives to be on that stage. We had the opportunity to do that and it's just one of those things you'll never forget." Alex added that he was excited about the Royal Wedding - or rather having the day off. The pair also said they were looking forward to another major event happening in the capital next year - the London 2012 Olympics. Adam Buckingham said: "Our sport isn't an Olympic sport so the closest we can get to the Olympics would be to perform at the opening ceremony. "That's something we'd really want to do."
