How does Britain’s Got Talent: The Champions work?
Britain’s Got Talent: The Champions consists of former contestants from winners to Golden Buzzer acts and fan favourites.
This is the first time Britain has hosted a Champions edition of the show.
It is pre-recorded, filmed before the usual judges – David Walliams, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and, of course, Simon Cowell– and a live studio audience.
Each round will see two acts going through to the final – this will be the Golden Buzzer act – chosen by one of the judges – and the “superfan” vote winner.
So it’s the judges and “superfans” alone who decide the winner – no home voting!
America’s Got Talent: The Champions has already aired in the US across seven episodes.
The competition resulted in magician Shin Lim, winner of the thirteenth season of AGT, triumphing.
Which acts are through to the final?
So far there are four finalists:
- Mersey Girls – week two
- Alexa Lauenburger week two
- Kseniya Simonova – week one
- Bello and Annaliese Nock

What is the prize for winning Britain’s Got Talent: The Champions?
The champion will bag a whopping £100,000 prize after Simon Cowell chose to double the winnings.
The original amount was £50,000 but the music mogul decided to times the figure by two after overhearing host Ant McPartlin talk about the prize money.
Reports suggest he interjected, saying: “Did you just say fifty grand? That’s it?”
Ant reportedly replied: “That’s it. Unless you want to double it. Do you want to double it?”
As the live audience cheered, Simon spontaneously respond: “Yes, I will. It’s a hundred grand everybody.”
The lucky act will also take home a trophy for their efforts.
