Hi , sorry , I'm a newbie here as I only started watching since Monday and am unfamiliar with how the final works. Do they eliminate a few acts before announcing the winner or are all ten gonna be standing on the stage at the same time when they announce it? Thanks

I'm not sure anyone knows for sure, but the general thought is they will eliminate the seven with the lowest votes and then reopen the phone lines.

Last year they got all 6 onto the stage, and announced the winner.

But dunno what will happen this year because there are 10 finalists.

Maybe, they'll separate them into 2 groups of 5. Eluiminate the bottom group of 5.

Then out of remaining 5, anounce winner?

Sounds plausible rzt think thats what I would prefer to happen as well!
