'I've seen every series of Britain's Got Talent and this is who will win this year'
'I've seen every series of Britain's Got Talent and this is who will win this year' The Britain's Got Talent final will see 10 acts perform for the chance to win £250,000 and a spot at the Royal Variety Performance on Saturday The excitement is mounting as the Britain's Got Talent final approaches, set to air on Saturday (May 31) evening. A selection of gifted contestants are poised to take the stage, all vying for the grand prize of £250,000 and the coveted opportunity to perform at the Royal Variety Performance. After a series of live semi-finals, only ten acts have made it through to contend for the title in the 18th series of the show. The finalists include gymnastic sensation Binita Chetry, Post Office choir Hear Our Voice, dynamic dance troupe Ping Pong Pang, and vocalists Vinnie McKee and Stacey Leadbeatter. They will be joined by the golden buzzer acts chosen by the judges during the semi-finals: LED dance group The Blackouts, opera singer and drag artist Jasmine Rice, magician Harry Moulding, guitarist Olly Pearson, and stand-up comedian Joseph Charm. The Britain's Got Talent final will air on Saturday (May 31) As the final looms, the competition is incredibly close, with less than a 2% chance difference between the top two contenders, reports Belfast Live. Currently leading the pack with odds of 15/8, Hear Our Voice are tipped as the frontrunners, narrowly edging out The Blackouts, who are hot on their heels at 2/1. Kayley Cornelius from Betfred commented on the tight contest, saying: "Looking at the current odds, it's only a matter of percentages separating the top two favourite acts, suggesting it's going to be a really tight race to see who is crowned this year's winner. "At 15/8, Hear Our Voice are just clinging on to the favourite spot, but only just. Telling their emotional story through the power of song, their harmonies have struck a strong chord with viewers at home, and the emotional vote could ultimately sway things in their favour." Hear Our Voice are the favourites to win the series She added: "However, it's worth noting that up until this week, The Blackouts were the unwavering favourites in the betting markets, and now perched just behind at 2/1, a strong performance on Saturday night could still see them walk away as winners." As an avid follower of Britain's Got Talent, I've been fortunate to witness a myriad of outstanding acts over the years. Yet, with each passing year, my expectations grow - no one wants to see the same thing every year. There are undoubtedly some remarkable vocal talents in this year's finale, but after Sydnie Christmas's victory last year, I'm eager for a change of pace when it comes to this year's winner. Nine-year-old Binita Chetry stunned the audience with her incredible gymnastics skills (Image: ITV ) Ping Pong Pang amazed the audience with their unique blend of table tennis prowess and hip-hop beats, and Binita Chetry's astonishing semi-final act was all the more impressive given her tender age of nine. The roster is really competitive this season, with The Blackouts also introducing an element of novelty to their act that we haven't seen before. If it were up to me, any of them would have my vote. Yet, the poignant story of Hear Our Voice, transforming personal hardship into creative expression, presents a challenging emotional tide to counteract. Soon enough, we'll see who rises to the top.
