BRITAIN'S Got Talent fans have fumed that magician Jack Rhodes was "robbed" during last night's final after a "predictable" result.
Singer Sydnie Christmas was crowned the winner after she wowed with her rendition of Somewhere Over The Rainbow at the Hammersmith Apollo.
She beat Jack Rhodes and Afronitaa who came in second and third place respectively.
But some viewers were left disappointed by the results and said Jack was their preferred winner.
One person wrote: "BGT Is singing really variety? Jack was robbed, he was much more entertaining."

A second posted: "BGT Absolute joke! Singing was average at best, Innocent was FAR better and Jack was robbed. Many better acts, seems the rumours were true that Simon fixed the results."
This viewer echoed: "So an already established singer just won BGT 2024, what a fix. Jack was robbed but they knew what they were doing when choosing the running order, not a coincidence both Jack and Sydnie were the last 2 acts and in the top 2 and Simon's whole no professionals in the top 2 #BGT."
"Jack was robbed! She’s already a professional singer with 45,000+ Spotify listener’s & fans who voted her to win," a fourth shared.
Someone else said: "Sydnie performed last and won, this show is FIXED Jack Rhodes was Robbed."
Last night, eleven finalists all took to the stage for one last time in a bid to win the top prize of £250,000 and a spot at the Royal Variety Performance later this year.

Comedian Alex Mitchell had odds of 4/1 ahead of Sunday's grand finale, with dance-duo Abigail and Afronitaa at 7/1.
Japanese jump rope group Haribow were outsiders with odds of 33/1 but were firm fan favourites.
Ahead of the winner being announced, Simon hit back at 'fix' claims that have plagued the show.
He told Ant and Dec and the live audience: "Winning is important, but, you know, getting into this final and importantly, doing something great, will actually make a difference.

"You know what was interesting? I worked out, I don't think a single act tonight were professionals. They all had a regular job, yeah, and they did something extraordinary."
As the winner of the series, Sydnie will take home the £250,000 cash prize and sing at this year's Royal Variety Performance.
When Declan Donnelly asked how she felt after the win, Sydnie Christmas held her head in her hands as she struggled to speak.
"Oh, I don't know what to say!" she finally uttered. "I cannot believe the amount of love that I felt since it aired... Oh my God, I am overwhelmed with love and it's the most amazing thing."
"It's amazing, thank you so much!"
