BRITAIN’S Got Talent viewers have threatened to ‘riot’ as they demand judges to step in after a “wrong decision” was made.
Ravi’s Dream Team were sent home after a an intense decision between them and Haribow to go through to the next round.
Fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, urging the judges to bring back the contestants as wild cards.
“#BGT Ravi’s Dream TEAM SHOULD get the wildcard for the final, otherwise we will RIOT ON SOCIALS!!,” wrote one fan.
Whilst another added: “Also – I’m not saying that Jack Rhodes isn’t a worthy finalist – I just think he should have been the Wildcard Act.
“We have some very strong magicians this year. Magicians Assemble are tomorrow night and I think they’ll be 10x better then that. #BGT.”
A third penned: “@SimonCowell needs to put Ravi through as a Wildcard on Sunday because wrong decision tonight.”
“GIVE RAVI’S DREAM TEAM THE WILDCARD!!!,” wrote a fourth.
A fifth added: “Ravi will get the wildcard.”
Whilst a sixth echoed: “Ravi must be the wildcard on Sunday.”
Fans of the ITV1 show slammed the channel for showing finalists Haribow making it through to Sunday’s Grand Final, while a young girl from Ravi’s Dream Team choir cried next to them.
The youngster appeared to be upset as the judges were in deadlock and sent the decision on who would join magician Jack Rhodes in the final to the public vote.
Bruno Tonioli picked Haribow, while Alesha Dixon went for Ravi’s Roar, as did Amanda Holden.
But when it came to Simon Cowell he made sure it went to a tie by also picking Haribow – and it ended up going to the audience vote.
As it was announced that the Japanese double dutch group had topped the public vote, it all looked like it was too much for the choir girl who was soon taken off stage.
BGT's Best Golden Buzzer Moments
BGT have handed out many Golden Buzzer's over the years, can you remember some of the most famous
- Loren Allred – Loren Allred, 32, from Brooklyn, New York jetted to London to audition after recording the vocals for The Greatest Showman. The stunning singer got a standing ovation and a Golden Buzzer from the judges as she delivered a stirring rendition of Never Enough from the popular film. Loren came out on stage and revealed to the judges they would have heard her voice many times before that moment. “I was hired to record the vocals for The Greatest Showman as a guide for the actors to know how to sing the songs,” she explained. Loren then revealed actress Rebecca Ferguson was so stunned by her singing that she decided to let her vocals be heard in the movie. “So she lip-synced,” Loren said.
- Chicken Shed Theatre Company– Comprised of individuals aged between 5 and 37, the group was set up to welcome anyone irrespective of background to get up on stage and perform and fulfil their dream. Chicken Shed prides itself on accepting anyone and does not hold auditions to make the group a safe and inclusive space. The group wowed as they performed Wonder by Naughty Boy featuring Emeli Sande. It meant that Alesha wasted no time as she decided to hit her golden buzzer for the young performers. She told them it was her “honour” to reward their inclusiveness with her golden buzzer.
- The Dancing Granny– Granny Paddy Jones and her professional partner Niko Espinosa first hit headlines when they won the Spanish talent show Tú sí que vales in 2009, before going on to appear on Britain’s Got Talent in 2014 where they came ninth. Amanda Holden was so impressed with Paddy that she gave her the Golden Buzzer, which sent them straight through to the semi-finals. But things took a worrying turn when Paddy cracked a rib while rehearsing a new move and her place on the show was under doubt. She was given the all-clear to perform in the end but didn’t quite live up to expectations.
- Bars and Melody – They will forever be remembered for their anti-bullying song on the talent show. Bars and Melody were first seen on the 2014 series of Britain’s Got Talent, getting shuttled into the semi-finals when Simon Cowell pressed his Golden Buzzer. They made it to the final thanks to a performance of I’ll Be Missing You but lost out on the crown to Collabro. These days Charlie Lenehan – known as Melody – is covered in tattoos, with inkings on his neck, arms and chest. But he is as close as ever to co-star Leondre Devries – who is Bars – with the pair seen enjoying themselves in exotic locations all over the world.
