Britain's Got Talent 2018 final voting statistics revealed – did anyone come close to Lost Voice Guy?
Comedian Lee Ridley earned 21% of the vote during the final on Sunday according to ITV
The voting statistics for the Britain's Got Talent 2018 final have been revealed – and no one came close to defeating stand-up comic Lee Ridley AKA Lost Voice Guy.
The comedian – who performs with a speech synthesiser after being diagnosed with cerebral palsy when he was six months old – earned 21% of the final vote on his way to being crowned the 12th BGT winner, a particularly impressive feat considering he was up against nine other acts.
Fellow comedian Robert White was closest to him with 17.2%, followed by singers Donchez Dacres and Gruffyd Win Roberts, both of whom finished up the final vote with a share of 11.2%.
Perhaps more impressive, it was also revealed that Ridley won the first night of last week's semi-finals with 40.5% of the vote, dwarfing the number collected by D-Day Darlings (21.3%) and Maddox Dixon (13.5%).
The series has wrapped for the year, but Simon Cowell has said that it will return in 2019 with Ant McPartlin in tow.
