So clearly manipulated now - a proper competition would draw lots for the order not on who Scowell wants to shaft or who is his pet act.

If Emma (or one of the other better acts) had been last instead of golden boy Callum I think the result would have been quite different.

That's Simon Cowell for you.

Just like on X Factor being the best singer doesn't mean you're going to win.

It's sad but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

I did think the first few semis were fair, Lorraine on last, Entity Allstars first etc. but from Wednesday the running order was clearly manipulated.

Entity amde the final despite being on first.

At the end of the day, with BGT, you can't have a random order as some acts need time to setup/clear the stage

The problem is Monday's semi was dire because the strong acts were stacked in the first half. The second half was painful. Yesterday and today were better because they were balanced instead of being stacked one way or another. But having Calum on last when they already had a similar singer in the final was ridiculous. He should have performed early on.
