10 acts battled it out for a place in the Royal Variety Show in the Britain’s Got Talent live final tonight.
A choir established by Jeremy Clarkson has been voted as the winner of this year’s Britain’s Got Talent final. Hawkstone Farmers Choir made history as the first choir to win the 19th edition of the talent competition.
They group wowed judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and KSI to reach the live semi-finals before winning over the voting public to be crowned champions and earn a spot at the Royal Variety Performance.
Clarkson, dubbed their “biggest cheerleader”, erupted into cheers when the choir won along with several members of the group.
Drone precision group Celestial finished as runner-up while dog act Anastasia Beaumont and Salsa were third following an enthralling final.
However, not everyone seemed happy with the result. Though the choir’s win was met with cheers, the audience booed when dance group LMA and singer Matty Juniosa failed to crack the top three, reports the Mirror.
One BGT fan has slammed the show as “brutal” after they notice a hidden detail in the music choices.
Ed Sheeran‘s single Celestial began to play after Hawkstone Farmers Choir were announced as the winners.
The fan said: “Celestial losing the BGT final then Celestial by Ed Sheeran playing in the background is brutal.”
A special guest performance from girl group Mis-Teeq featured in the final before the results were announced. The group has recently reunited after a 21-year hiatus.
Judge Alesha was joined by bandmates Sabrina Washington and Su-Elise Nash
Alesha, Sabrina and Su-Elise have reunited on the BGT stage for a performance to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their first studio album.
The three started on a raised platform in red and black outfits. They performed a medley of songs – One Night Stand, Scandalous and All I Want – as they danced around the stage.
At the end of the performance, Alesha said that the trio would be performing a show in September at Wembley.
