As Amanda performed the trick in front of the judges, hosts Ant and Dec Donnelly sat down next to Miracle on stage.

Amanda revealed she has more than 40 dogs and she’s saved 19 from the dog meat trade.

A message on a screen read: “Miracle has been at the heart of our family for six years, but he wasn’t always as happy and healthy as he is today.

“He spent the early part of his life in unimaginable conditions as a victim of the dog meat trade.

“He was discovered crushed in a cage with over 1,000 other dogs. Believe it or not this was him.”

It continued: “When the rescuer first saw him she thought he was dead, but when her camera flashed, he opened an eye. It was a miracle he was still alive.

“We brought him back to Scotland and slowly nurtured him back to health.

“These days, it’s us who need him.”

As part of Amanda and Miracle’s act, the judges had randomly chosen one photo each of one of Amanda’s 40 dogs.

Before their appearance, Miracle had chosen which four dogs to bring to the studio.

The pooches were then let out of a big dog house on stage.
