Impressionist Ben Nickless and Musical Duo from Croydon and Birmingham, Flintz & T4ylor progressed to Sunday's Grand Final of Britain's Got Talent from the second semi-final last night.

Ben Nickless has seen his price with betting sites slashed from 33/1 into just 9/1, while Flintz & T4ylor are now given a 14/1 chance.

In what was a strange show in comparison to Monday night's line up, 2 more names have been added to the final roster but little had changed to the acts at the head of the betting on BGT.

Betting sites have slashed the chance of Ben Nickless winning BGT 2022 to just 12/1 from 33/1 following winning the public vote on Tuesday night. Maxwell Thorpe remains the favourite at just EVENS

Ben Nickless opened with a variation of Freddie Starr's Vincent routine, this time performing it to Elvis although omitting the important tee-up of the routine by lambasting backing tracks and hailing live performers, which kind of left the fast forward, rewind and jumping soundtrack a little bemusing to anyone who isn't aware of the Freddie Starr original. He then continued with a super quick selection of maybe 20 impressions delivered to the 'This is Me' Greatest Showman track.

Flintz and T4ylor performed another original song with Flintz panting away standing on top of the art-deco surround of T4ylors piano.

Some of Monday night's eliminated acts might have felt hard done by, as there are acts out of the competition after just 2 night who would probably have sailed through this line up, including Mel Day, The London Community Choir and third place finisher Magician Junwoo.

A somewhat underwhelming second semi-final may possibly leave some Monday night eliminated contestants feeling they would have sailed through this heat in which Impressionist Ben Nickless won, and Vocal duo Flintz & Taylor also progressed to Sunday's final.
