Britain's Got Talent 2023: Voting percentages


I must confess I didn't tune in this year, as to my mind the format is getting a little long in the tooth. However, I'm well aware that some still enjoy watching and indeed placing a wager on acts in this still popular  ITV show. 

This year's winner Viggo Venn, certainly wouldn't have been on the radar of many, since funny as 'novelty' acts are they typically don't actually end up winning. Before he won his heat he was 150-1 with bookmakers, before dramatically shortening after.


In any case without further ado, here are the series voting percentages by show, and including the grand final. A relatively easy win by all accounts:


Vote 1 Musa Motha - 38.2% Amy Lou - 18.3% Abi Carter-Simpson - 16.6% Enzo Weyne - 10.0% Parkour Collective - 7.5% United 2 Dance - 4.3% Gamal John - 4.1% Ichikawa Koikuchi - 1.0%

Vote 2 Viggo Venn - 43.7% Johns' Boys - 16.4% Olivia Lynes - 13.3% Nathan & Joanne - 7.2% Lewis Fuller - 6.8% Yo Highness - 5.1% Tia Connolly - 3.9% Andrew Stanton - 3.6%
