The WINNER of Britain's Got Talent is 2022...— BGT (@BGT) @axelblake_🏆 Comedian Axel Blake has been crowned the winner of Britain's Got Talent 2022. The 33-year-old property maintenance manager from west London, who was Simon Cowell's golden buzzer choice, scooped the £250,000 prize in the live final on Sunday night, as well as a spot on the bill at Britain's Royal Variety Performance.

The comedian triumphed over teen ventriloquist Jamie Leahey and singer Tom Ball.

Amazing. Well done fella #BGT #BGTFinal." @MichBrooksTV defended: "So pleased for Axel the Comedian on #BGt glad ppl voted for him. And @jordandavies09 said: "Axel Blake has already had an Amazon Prime special. @John_Guy1 asked: "Can someone tell me, how someone like Axel Blake, who had his own TV show on @primevideouk to appear on @BGT and win it."

Alesha Dixon joined the judging panel for tonight's BGT final alongside Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Amanda Holden.

Amanda Holden's outfit was the one that stole the night, however, as she adorned herself in the Union Jack as tribute to the Platinum Jubilee. The outfit was adorned with a huge pink ribbon on the shoulder that trailed to the floor. The 43-year-old judge looked incredible in her sequinned and netted dress as she made her way to the panel alongside co-stars Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Amanda Holden.

And @julianhilaire said: "Simon is embarrassing." @rogernook said: "Awkward Simon doesn't talk to the acts backstage." Simon brings back an act and doesn't even know if the dog is male or female."

Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden look ahead to the Britain's Got Talent grand final and reflect on their favourite moments of the series…

"You can’t always put your finger on it but there will be something about someone, their journey and their story that touches people’s hearts and makes the public want to root for them. It's more about celebrating entertainment, and the best of the best." With over 20 years’ experience writing about TV and film, Vicky currently writes features for What’s on TV, TV Times, TV & Satellite Week magazines plus news and watching guides for WhatToWatch.com, a job which involves chatting to a whole host of famous faces. One minute I was on stage and then the next minute I was asleep, and Alesha was like: “Well, you just did this.” And I was like: “No, I didn’t.” I was tasked with guessing what the other judges had picked from a box. "We had loads of choirs, which is something we've never had lots of before," says Amanda. "What was really special this year is that many of them had just come together that day, because they'd only ever met on Zoom before! There were a lot of acts this year where I think each one of us would've said: 'I would've pressed it for that.' I think all of us had strong Golden Buzzer acts this year." "It’s always a challenge for everyone involved in making this show to maintain a high standard and make sure every episode is as entertaining as the one before it and, this year, I think every show has been a winner," says Alesha. "I sit at home with my family and I watch BGT as if I wasn't ever there! His whole act from start to finish was just the gift that kept on giving, so I was really looking forward to seeing him again in the live shows. "I have to say, I was relieved we had our audience back at the auditions as it wasn’t the same without them," says Amanda. "It made us realise just how important that live audience is. "I loved Ant and Dec’s Golden Buzzer act, Keiichi Iwasaki, the magician from Japan," says Alesha. "His magic was genius and really fresh. "This series was myself, Simon, David and Amanda’s 10th year together as a panel," says Alesha. "I’ve always found it fascinating because the four of us are VERY different personality-wise, yet, when we come together, we’ve got this love for entertainment, this show, our kids and our dogs and all those things unite us. You can see the chemistry we have on screen.

The final of Britain's Got Talent concluded last night with comedian Axel Blake crowned the winner. The funny man made it through along with 10 other acts ...

Tom Ball - 14.2% Jamie Leahey - 14.7% Axel Blake - 19.7%

Lorraine Kelly asked Axel Blake to set the record straight about his Amazon Prime show.

So it wasn’t for Amazon Prime. I didn’t know they were going to pick it up. Then after that, Amazon picked it up. Host Lorraine Kelly asked about the comedy special, with Axel setting the record straight.

Britain's Got Talent acts Flintz & Taylor, who were awarded the golden buzzer during their audition, made a mistake at the start of their performance.

And I'm telling you now boys, this is just the beginning." For the finale, they performed an original song inspired by their journey on the show. Ant told the musician: "It doesn't get better than working with your best friend, trust me. But, let me tell you something right now; what you've done, what you guys have achieved together on this show far outweighs any teeny tiny mistake up there." They first met in person at their audition earlier this year. Quacey asked Taylor to put a melody behind his rap but they met in real life only on the day of the audition as Quacey lives in Croydon, South London, and Taylor lives in Great Barr, Birmingham.

Among the finalists was rapper and pianist duo Flintz and T4ylor who delivered a moving original song about their journey of connecting on social media and ...

She added: "You're going to come off stage and you're going to beat yourself up about this. Alesha Dixon said: "Artist to artist, it doesn't matter whatever anyone tells you tonight, you're going to feel bad and I know what that feels like." Ant and Dec have moved to offer their support after an act in the final of ITV Britain's Got Talent went wrong.
