In the end, it was magican Harry Moulding who made it through by golden buzzer and singer Binita Chetry by public vote.
However, the decision appears to have divided viewers with many taking to social media to complain that Harry’s act was “staged”.
Magician Harry Moulding makes BGT final
Harry began tonight’s trick by asking the judges to predict a seat number at random.
The apparently random audience member was then invited to join him on stage. The magician correctly guessed her name, “Jess”, and then invited her to pick a place at random.
After she chose Paris, a pre-recorded video was shown, showing Harry himself in Paris several days ago. He was seen speaking to a passerby, who turned out to be Jess’s boyfriend.

The act came to an emotional climax when Jess’s boyfriend appeared on stage to propose to her.
BGT magician divides viewers
Many viewers were impressed by Harry’s magic, and touched by the proposal.
“a wedding proposal in a magician act?! a lovely sweet moment. well done Harry.” Tweeted one person.
Another person agreed: “A LIVE wedding proposal and GOLDEN BUZZER! What a moment for Harry Moulding – and the happy couple.”
However others thought they smelled a rat.
One person tweeted: “So you “randomly selected” an audience member and they just happen to be a well known TikTok couple with 77k followers? Interesting.”
So this random proposal on @BGT and yet the newly engaged Jess posted this on Instagram. Look out for us?? #bgt pic.twitter.com/aIi4wdR6Fm
