Britain's Got Talent final judges wildcard act revealed
After a number of weeks of exciting semi-finals, there were various acts that missed out on the chance to perform in the final.
However, of all the acts, one is in the final as the wildcard.
But some fans have been left disappointed by the decision.
The wildcard act chosen for the 2025 Britain's Got Talent final is Han and Fran.
They were chosen as the 11th act by the judges.
Ant and Dec revealed the wildcard during the opening of the final, with Simon saying: "They got a massive vote from the public and therefore they deserve a shot in the final."
Viewers quickly voiced their opinion, with many taking to X (formerly Twitter) to share what they thought of the pair's return.
One said: "So has Simon just confirmed Han and Fran are the wild card because they got the highest 2nd place vote?"
Another added: "So many better acts should've been chosen as the wildcard."
"Why would you bring these two back?", a third said.
And our Wildcard is... HAN & FRAN!!! 🪩🎶

The vocalist duo quickly became fan favourites on their first appearance.
Despite performing a second ABBA medley, the duo were eliminated on last weekend's (May 24) semi-final.
They are vying to become the first Welsh winners of the show.

"Everyone in the arena supported her and had her back. It was clear she appreciated the love and support of her fans, as she always has." Kylie's friends and fans have come out in full force to support her on her mammoth tour, with Britain's Got Talent star Amanda Holden turning up to support her friend on Monday night. The BGT host was in her element at her friends gig, as she danced alongside fellow BGT judge Bruno Tonioli and BBC co-star Alan Carr.

BBC The One Show viewers confused over unexpected format change
The One Show fans were left confused as Alex Jones and Clara Amfo interviewed Tina Knowles on Tuesday The One Show viewers were left confused over an unexpected format change on Tuesday (June 3). In the latest episode of the popular BBC show, presenters Alex Jones and Clara Amfo covered the day's biggest stories from the UK and globally. The duo also spoke to actors Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed about their new British action comedy, Deep Cover, as well as television presenter Fern Britton, who discussed her latest novel, A Cornish Legacy. Later on, the hosts sat down with Tina Knowles to talk about her revealing new memoir, Matriarch. The book dives into her life's story, shedding light on her experiences of grief, tragedy, love and heartache, in addition to how she raised her successful daughters, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Solange Knowles, reports the Express. However, the show's viewers were left confused as Tina didn't join the other guests on the green sofa, but was instead sat in a different part of the studio. "I wonder if guests negotiate specially to be interviewed in this separate space, away from the riffraff on the main sofa," one viewer pondered on X (formerly Twitter). Another chimed in: "Tina gets her own sofa #TheOneShow," while someone else questioned: "Why wasn't she sat on the sofa with the guests? #TheOneShow." There was also speculation among some audience members about whether Tina's segment had been pre-taped, with one comment noting: "Never known anyone do this, assuming it's pre-recorded." During her interview, Tina opened up about the significance of penning her memoir, stating: "I have just been behind the scenes for pretty much [my daughters] whole career, so this was a big step for me to come out. "It's been a wonderful journey, I've learned so much from writing this book. It was very necessary to look at all the things, the good and the bad, that have happened in my life, and for me to tell it from my own words. "We're in a time where there are so many rumours, and I just wanted to set the record straight on so many things. It's been a great healing journey for me." Tina revealed that the memoir's origins began over a decade ago as recordings for her grandchildren, but she later realised its wider potential to aid others and chose to publish it.
