How come no social distancing between them sitting at the table going over the acts from earlier in the year? Just curious!

Gutted they didnt win!! 😔 😔 😔 😔

Yay! Delighted for him. Brilliant act.

He seems genuinely surprised and quite modest.

@Fizbosshoes

I felt so sad for all the performers (not quite so much the household names as they will prob pick up tv work) as there was such a wealth of talent. Not just the performers but the musicians, set designers, set builders, back stage crew , costumiers, make up artists etc. Theres a lot of talk about retraining and jobs not being viable, but these guys are already trained and talented in really niche skills that it would be incredibly sad if they couldnt use those again.

Agreed. My best friend teaches theatre tech at college. She has no idea what her future holds.

Fantastic win x

Well.done

I think the right act won. So pleased for him.

Very pleased for this guy. Following in the very fine footsteps of people like Tim Minchin, Victoria Wood and Richard Stilgoe.

Ffs. It was like he knew he had won from the face he was pulling. So fixed!

Well I’m pleased for him and I think he’s a great act for the Royal Variety Performance.

I gave up. Who won?

I really can't understand how he got Alesha's holden buzzer. Seriously not funny... I mean, how can he say "once you go black you don't go back" on a family show ffs 👀

He's her friend..

Jon Courtenay

@Standrewsschool

Two of my favourite musical stars on one stage, Michael Ball and Rob Hiuchon.

And Bradley Jaden (Enjolras) for me

@skepticalcat

Braden Jayden - how did I not know about him!

@Standrewsschool - you do now 😄

I like Michael Ball but he always takes over and talk loads doesnt he. Whatever I've seen him in he does that. Both times on BGT and other stuff.

Fixed how? the voting stats were on another board Jon got 35.7% Sign Along got 15.3%

So looking at the percentage scores, Jasper Cherry got the highest score of any of the semifinals and finals. I did like his performance last night. James and Dylan were the only other act to dominate their semifinal. Other shows were much closer.

Pretty lacklustre show. Just watched it and fast forwarded through most of the magician performances. Far too many for one programme!

The winner was ok, but the humour was a bit bum/fart/poo really. Still better than Alisha's golden buzzer who had one joke really. Disappointing like the whole series.

Yeah, too many magicians for one show.
