Peter & Eagle are a novelty act who are auditioned for Series 18 of Britain’s Got Talent. Peter was aged 45 at the time of the duo’s audition. Before their performance, Peter claimed to be a professional falconer and to have trained with birds of prey and to specialise in eagles.
In their audition, Peter gave Simon a whistle with the audience anticipating an actual Eagle to come down and perch on his shoulder when he blew the whistle, however in reality a man dressed as an eagle descended from atop the stage to ‘I’m Like a Bird’ by Nelly Furtado before telling several jokes with the punchline of several of them being ‘A bald eagle’. Bruno remarked ‘It doesn’t work for me’, before Simon encouraged Eagle to tell another joke as he was uncertain as to whether or not to vote ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. They advanced onto the following round, however, they failed to reach the Semi-Finals.
