BGT fans all issue complaint over Wildcard after 'ridiculous' rule change
The 2025 final of Britain's Got Talent kicked off on ITV1 tonight with presenters Ant and Dec revealing which act had returned to the competition as this year's Wildcard act Britain's Got Talent viewers have been left torn over this year's Wildcard act as the 2025 final kicked off on ITV. After months of auditions and live shows, the latest series of BGT comes to an end tonight in the supersized live final. Just minutes into the final, however, hosts Ant and Dec announced that Welsh singing duo Han and Fran had been chosen by the judges as the Wildcard act after narrowly missing out on a place in the final during last weekend's live show. The singing pair were first to take to the stage tonight, singing a mega-mix of ABBA songs; however, viewers were left divided over whether they were the right pick for the Wildcard. "Can't believe the wildcard choice, some brilliant acts could have been picked over them #BGTFinal," one viewer wrote. Another said on X, formerly known as Twitter: "So many better acts should've been chosen as the wild card. #BGT." Not all viewers were unimpressed, however, with many praising the duo. "VERY happy with this year's wildcard - fun, not 'up themselves' & absolutely British! #BritainsGotTalent #BGT," one fan tweeted. Another said: "I'm kinda happy Han & Fran got the wildcard I quite liked them. But I do agree that there were better acts who deserved it over them. #BGT." A third wrote: "Han and Fran being the wildcard is the campest thing ever I'm obsessed! #bgt." After Han and Fran's performance, judge Simon Cowell spoke about how they chose the duo as their Wildcard pick as the audience loved them - leading to some confusion among the viewers online. "Who picked the wildcard? Judges or the public? #BritainsGotTalent #BGT," one asked. However, some called for a change to the Wildcard rule, proposing that it should be the viewers who get to choose the returning act and not the judges. "Why can't the audience have a wild card? Ridiculous #bgt." Tonight's final has so far seen dance group Ping Pong Pang and singer Stacey Leadbeatter perform, with eight more acts set to take to the stage. However, the judges were the first to make their debut in the final - with Amanda Holden wowing the crowd and audience at home with her stunning white gown. Earlier today, many fans were convinced that they had worked out who was set to win this year's final after the bookies revealed that Hear Our Voice - a choir made up of victims of the Post Office Horizon scandal - were the favourite.
