Britain's Got Talent announces more live finalists for 2023 finale
Britain's Got Talent spoilers follow.
Britain's Got Talent has revealed its second batch of 2023 finalists.
During tonight's (May 30) episode, the reality series confirmed two more contestants who will compete for the season 16 crown in the live finale this weekend.
Taking the Hammersmith Apollo stage were singer Tia Connolly, female dance crew Yo Highness, dance partners Nathan and Joanne, singer Olivia Lynes (who was Amanda's Golden Buzzer act during auditions), sword swallower Andrew Stanton, Welsh male choir Johns' Boys, comedian and hi-vis enthusiast Viggo Venn and singer, musician and illusionist Lewis Fuller.
After an evening of entertainment and just before the public votes came through, hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly checked in with judges Amanda Holden, Bruno Tonioli, Simon Cowell and Alesha Dixon to find out their favourite acts of the night.
Amanda and Simon agreed that Viggo Venn was the evening's best, while Alesha said she couldn't predict who would snag a coveted place in the finale.
Following the public vote, it was confirmed that Olivia Lynes, Johns' Boys and Viggo Venn had made the top three — with Viggo announced as the contestant moving straight to the finale.
It was then up to the judges to choose between Olivia and Johns' Boys. Bruno voted for Johns' Boys, while Alesha, Amanda and Simon each voted for Olivia.
Viggo Venn and Olivia Lynes join singer Amy Lou Smith and dancer Musa Motha, who were announced as finalists during the first night of semi-finals.

Though Johns' Boys didn't make it past the semi-final stage, one of its members did make a memorable joke following their performance of Harry Styles' ballad 'Falling'. He said their choice of song was inspired by Ant, who took a tumble on stage last night.
The semi-finals will continue throughout the rest of this week, ending on Friday, June 2 before the grand finale on Sunday, June 4.
Britain's Got Talent airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
