Britain's Got Talent shock as Ant licks contestant Preacher Lawson's face

Britain's Got Talent viewers were left stunned on Saturday night Ant McPartlin got very up close and personal to one of the contestants.

The judges, studio audience and millions watching at home were beside themselves as Ant licked American comedian Preacher Lawson on the face.

The comic is eligible for the Champions series having been a finalist on America's Got Talent and his humour definitely translated well over the Atlantic when he had BGT judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon in stitches with his stand up act that was over all too quickly.

During his set Preacher Lawson revealed that during his time on America's Got Talent he licked host Tyra Banks' hand and said he'd 100% let his girlfriend lick Ant & Dec , saying he'd think she was stupid if she didn't.

But in the end it was Preacher Lawson himself who could the lips,or rather the tongue put on him by Ant, as you can see in the video from ITV above.

Approaching him, Ant said "let's get this out the way!" before licking him on the face.
