I can’t find the BGT thread so starting one here.

Just catching up on tonight’s episode.

The dancing duo were so mediocre. Shame on Bruno for changing his mind, he should have stuck to his original decision.

Like all these show BGT is way more produced and managed/scripted than you would think from casual viewing!

Anyone else notice Ant covering up Cillian's mistake in his act. Thank God he was on the ball unlike Simon.

Rowthe · 04/06/2023 23:10

Lilianna did well.

She came 3rd in her heat behind Cillian and Tonikaku but ended up beating both and coming 2nd overall.

The hanky trick is done by stuffing it into a false thumb over your real thumb. When Ant pulled the hanky out of his pocket (which Cillian had just put there) the thumb was stuck on the end of ot and Ant quickly closed his fist around it so you couldn't see it. If you watch it back and look for it you will see it.

What a rubbish final. Thought the winner whatever his name was looked mildly embarrassed. He robbed some of those litttle kids. Should have been the ghetto kids. The only acts I didn’t mentally switch off from where ghetto kids and the aerial couple.

toomanyleggings · 04/06/2023 23:24

Wonder if it’s because the public aren’t keen on the new monarch? I’m sure Charlie won’t enjoy that act

creativebutterfly · 04/06/2023 23:25

Crap and didn't vote only watch the damn show because nothing better on tv.

Flapjacker48 · 04/06/2023 23:28

@toomanyleggings No sorry, the Ghetto kids were being far to heavily pushed by some as as a worthy act that should win. Exactly in the middle percentage wise from the vote.

Agree thought the judges were heavily pushing them

I've just watched a YouTube clip of Viggo at the Vauxhall Tavern - he has short hair and is rather attractive!

Yes, we clocked that too.

I saw that but didnt realise it was a thumb.

Just looked like a cylinder of some kind the hankie was in.

ilovebrie8 · 05/06/2023 08:28

Simon didn’t seem with it like he was in slo mo or something . I liked the aerial couple. Not the best final the Chinese guy in his pants was dreadful !

ilovebrie8 · 05/06/2023 08:35

I agree with other posters we don’t need sob stories we have enough of that in real life. This is meant to be entertainment . I’m over dance groups …

A reach worthy of Mr Tickle.

GonnaGetGoingReturns · 05/06/2023 09:37

Watched all these acts last night. I did feel like for a few there were sob stories or children and agree with others people are probably sick of them!

I liked pants man and Viggo. Also Liliana.

Call me unappreciative of talent but all I could see was Musa hopping around on a crutch. Malachi was cute but after I heard he already has a semi pro career that’s why he didn’t win. It’s always a bit shocking seeing people like him and Olivia who thought they were winners when they don’t win. Do they get hyped up that much?

Williteverberesolvec · 05/06/2023 09:54

I just do not understand why out of all the dedicated talent, a guy wearing vis jackets won! What on earth will the royal family be thinking when they watch this act??!!

the80sweregreat · 05/06/2023 10:15

I think it's funny that the new King and Queen will have to watch Viggo , although they probably don't like that many of the acts anyway
I'm sure they will grin and bear it.

ArcaneWireless · 05/06/2023 10:19

If I were QC, I’d be using the opportunity when he was on to nip to the lav/have a fag/quaff a sneaky gin at the bar.

Defiantly this is what annoys when they criticise a acts song choice..they don't chose the song! Producers etc do

Am surprised Getto kids were put on first though seeing as the first lot of acts never do well.

LifeIsPainHighness · 05/06/2023 13:57

I agree re Simon - it’s like Amanda is his career too, always pawing at him and repeating things to him

Soubriquet · 05/06/2023 17:05

Finally watching with dd now. I thought ghetto kids were good. That little girl keeps up with the bigger ones so well.

Olivia was good….but she wasn’t brilliant.

Amy Lou…yeah not my thing.

Tonikaku….so stupid but I did laugh when he did the Simon pose

Travis is good. I like the song but I don’t like it down beat like that.

Duo Odyssey. Loved them. But I thought their semi-final audition was better.

Cillian was really good bless him though I did spot that rogue thumb.

Lilliana is absolutely amazing. So fantastic. Especially for being only 13. Shocking she didn’t win really because she fully deserves it.

Now it’s Viggo….and what a load of shit. Honestly Lilliana was robbed. Why the fuck did he win. He’s completely rubbish. Not at all funny. Though dd seems to think it’s hilarious, but she’s 10

Musa he’s ok…but like other people have said, if he was two legged instead of 1, he wouldn’t have gotten as far as he did. He’s good, but not amazing.

Malakai, well I agree with others saying whilst he’s good, he already has the opportunities afforded to him so it would be unfair.

BirdChirp · 05/06/2023 17:17

They were the final 3 I wanted, but for Viggo to come 3rd and one of the other two to win.

Viggo makes me laugh - he is a good clown with amazing comic timing, though agree his act got ropier each time he was on. I think he has one or two acts he does regularly, as they are the ones of you tube (high vis and 'my name is') and was running out of things to do.

FionnulaTheCooler · 05/06/2023 17:18

I didn't watch it last night, recorded it and watched it today. I like Viggo, I'm happy with him as the winner although slightly gutted for Lilianna, she was absolutely brilliant. I wanted Viggo to win after watching his first performance, but his performances in the semi and final weren't as strong. Still, he makes me laugh and we all like a good laugh so fair play to him. Be interesting to see what he comes up with for the royal variety show.
