The first audition week of Britain’s Got Talent 2015 kicked off with a truly unforgettable act—Marc Métral and his talking dog, Wendy. As the duo took to the stage, the audience and judges alike were filled with curiosity. But what followed was a performance that would go down in Britain’s Got Talent history.
Marc, a skilled ventriloquist, introduced Wendy, his intelligent and incredibly talented dog, who was no ordinary canine. Wendy, with her soulful eyes and eager expression, seemed to have a mind of her own as Marc began to ask her questions, prompting her to respond in a way that had the entire theater in stitches.
“Wendy, what’s your favorite food?” Marc asked, and with a few seconds of hesitation, Wendy “spoke” her response in a comically human-like voice: “Sausages!”
The crowd erupted in laughter, but Marc wasn’t done. He continued his banter with Wendy, asking her, “Wendy, do you like Simon Cowell?” In a move that shocked even Simon himself, Wendy responded, “He’s grumpy!” This witty exchange had the audience and judges in fits of laughter, with Simon laughing more than anyone expected.
Amanda Holden, clearly amused, exclaimed, “I’ve never seen anything like this before! Wendy is hilarious, and Marc, you’re a genius!” Alesha Dixon added, “This is exactly what Britain’s Got Talent is all about—surprising us with something so unique and so entertaining.”
The act ended with a final joke from Wendy, as Marc asked her if she could do a trick, to which Wendy responded, “I can talk, what more do you want?” The audience cheered, giving Marc and Wendy a well-deserved standing ovation.
Simon Cowell, known for his tough critiques, smiled broadly and said, “I wasn’t sure at first, but that was absolutely brilliant. You and Wendy are one of the most unique acts we’ve ever had on this show.”
With four yeses from the judges, Marc and Wendy advanced to the next round, quickly becoming fan favorites. Their audition was one of the most talked-about moments of the season, proving that when it comes to talent, there are no limits—even for a dog.
