I’d done my best to stay offline and avoid being spoiled about the results of the final. I did a pretty good job and had no idea who won until I say it on BGT. My review/reactions to the show can be found below – all in chronological order.

Haha, there we go again. Ant even reacted to it this time.
Ant: Please dial carefully.
Dec: Please.

It’s always fun to see some of the worst/weirdest auditions again. Glad they showed a little from the finalists too.  Britain’s got talent guys! Oh, and I’m still in love with Simon’s face during Susan Boyles’s audition. lol, aaawww.

Love how they (Ant and Dec) often say “don’t you dare go anywhere” when they’re cutting to commercials, and the first thing Simon does is stands up and leave. Haha.

Results

Third: Julian Smith

Second: Susan Boyle

Winner: Diversity

So, does anyone else find it interesting that the top three acts were the last three acts to perform? I honestly think that that had a lot to do with the results. All in the top three are great, and I’m really, really, happy with the winner, but I honestly think that because of the level of talent, people were affected by the order. You see someone in the beginning that you love and write down the number, then you see someone in the middle who you love and write down that number, then you see someone at the end that you also love and write down that number. When it’s time to vote, you vote for the last act you’ve written down on that paper since that’s the act you remember the most. When they’re all so close talent-wise it’s really hard to decide who was actually the best, and with ten acts the last three or four are the once that will stay in your memory the best. Hm, so yeah, I think the order of things affected the results a lot, and I do believe that the outcome could have been completely different if the order was. In example: If Flawless had been the last and Diversity the first to perform, I actually believe that people would have thought exactly the opposite of what they (including me) did after the show. You’d have forgotten the great things diversity did and just remembered that you really liked it, but when seeing Flawless you would have thought it was amazing, just like most did after seeing their performance yesterday… I think y’all know what I mean by know.

Well, that’s it. Show’s over. Awww, it went by so fast! I still have a couple of BGMT reviews to post and I’ll get that done as soon as possible.
