Ugandan dance troupe Ghetto Kids missed out on the top three slots at the last stage of Britain’s Got Talent competition on Sunday, thanking fans for their "unwavering support". The six children are aged between six and 13 and were taken in and cared for by their guardian-turned-manager, Dauda Kavuma.

Viggo Venn, a 33-year-old comedian from Norway, was crowned the winner of Britain’s Got Talent 2023, scooping the £250,000 prize and a spot on the bill at the Royal Variety Performance. Dancer Lilliana Clifton, 13, and 14-year-old magician Cillian O’Connor placed in second and third, respectively, but missed out on the title. The Ugandan group had millions of YouTube views before joining the UK talent show and featured in a music video for US-Moroccan rap star French Montana in 2017.
Viggo Venn has been crowned the winner of Britain’s Got Talent 2023, scooping the £250,000 prize and a spot on the bill at the Royal Variety Performance. Venn, 33, had the judges laughing when he forced Simon Cowell to wear a matching high-vis jacket as rose petals were thrown over the pair. His triumph came in a year dominated by child stars, with 13-year-old dancer Lilliana Clifton and 14-year-old magician Cillian O’Connor finishing second and third, respectively. Susan Boyle made a surprise appearance during the final, singing her 2009 audition song I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserables with the cast of the West End production. The last came after a week of five live semi-finals, with five acts put through after receiving the most audience votes and another five voted through by the judges.
