Britain's Got Talent fans hit hit out at the show's judges just seconds into Sunday's live final, with the panel being accused of 'wasting' their wildcard vote, to give 'pants guy' Tonikaku a shot at winning.
After months of auditions and this week's semi finals, just one performance stood between the remaining acts and the BGT 2023 crown, with bookies updating their odds with just hours to go, to make amputee dancer Musa Motha the hot favourite to triumph.
Other hopefuls left in the running included dance group Ghetto Kids, younger singers Malakai Boyah and Olivia Lynes and comedian Viggo Venn and, as in years gone by, there was plenty of mystery surrounding the identity of the final act in contention for the title, as the judges had to choose a wildard for the final.
