The final of Britain\u2019s Got Talent 2019 has been decided, with OAP singer Colin Thackery the odds-on favourite to take the title.<\/p>\n

Thackery was barely in the betting before the live semi-finals, but he wowed in his live performance and took victory on Wednesday evening, dispatching of pre-semi final favourites boyband Chapter 13 in the process.<\/p>\n

The final is made up of the five winners from the semi-finals, plus one from the remaining top-two\u2026but there will also be one more addition with the judges\u2019 wildcard to be picked ahead of Sunday\u2019s live final.<\/p>\n

But we can again reveal that the Judges\u2019 own Golden Buzzer picks have been a real let down with only Kojo Anim and Flakefleet Primary School making it through, the picks of Simon Cowell and David Walliams respectively.<\/p>\n

Looking at the odds and Chelsea pensioner Thackery is odds-on to take the victory at 8\/11, way ahead of joint second favourites X \u2013 the psychic magician \u2013 and Dave & Finn, the former police dog and his partner.<\/p>\n

OddsMonkey spokesman Peter Watton commented: \u201cWe have 10 of the 11 finalists, but no matter who the judges put through, that will not impact on Colin Thackery and his favourtism, the way he came through his semi-final \u2013 it is hard to see him getting beat and the Bookmakers are not taking him on.<\/p>\n

\u201cX and Dave & Finn both rated at 5\/1, come in as semi-final winners so should be respected too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Selected odds:
\n<\/strong>Colin Thackery 8\/11
\nDave and Finn 5\/1
\nX 5\/1
\nBen Hart 7\/1
\nJonathan Goodwin 8\/1
\nFlakefeet Primary School Choir 12\/1

\nKojo Anim 25\/1
\nMark McMullan 33\/1
\nSiobhan Phillips 40\/1<\/p>\n
