In the end, it was magican Harry Moulding who made it through by golden buzzer and singer Binita Chetry by public vote.
However, the decision appears to have divided viewers with many taking to social media to complain that Harry’s act was “staged”.
Magician Harry Moulding makes BGT final
Harry began tonight’s trick by asking the judges to predict a seat number at random.
The apparently random audience member was then invited to join him on stage. The magician correctly guessed her name, “Jess”, and then invited her to pick a place at random.
After she chose Paris, a pre-recorded video was shown, showing Harry himself in Paris several days ago. He was seen speaking to a passerby, who turned out to be Jess’s boyfriend.
