Britain’s favourite silent comedian The Boy With Tape On His Face has appeared on America's Got Talent.

The award-winning New Zealand-born performer, whose real name is Sam Wills, appeared in front of Simon Cowell the panel of judges on the first episode of the new series. The prop comic won over the audience and judges with his endearing, distinctive style. Among his brief routines he did his crowd-pleasing version of Endless Love with two oven gloves serenading each other.

Wills will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of Paul Zerdin, who won the million dollar first prize last year and then landed a Las Vegas residency.
