Will Burns is the betting favourite to win this year's Britain's Got Talent
UK Betting Sites are already offering odds on who will be the winner of this year's Britain's Got Talent with singer Will Burns the 5/1 favourite to win the show this series.
Impressionist Burns impressed Ant and Dec more than the the judges to see him given their Golden Buzzer for 2025's BGT.
Burns told the judges how much of a super fan he was of BGT growing up and now he's straight through to the live semi-finals of the show following Ant and Dec pressing their Golden Buzzer.
Bet365's early betting odds place Burns as the 5/1 favourite to win the show with an implied probability of 16.7% given that he is crowned BGT champion.
| Britain's Got Talent Winner 2025 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Will Burns | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Teddy Magic | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Vinnie McKee | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Obsequious | 33/1 | 2.9% |
| Auzzy Blood | 40/1 | 2.4% |
YouTuber KSI joined as a guest judge this series
With BGT looking to hit the younger audience this year, YouTuber KSI joined the show as a guest judge this year with his first auditions aired on Saturday night's show.
KSI has more than 20 billion views on his content with an additional 2 billion plus listens to his music on streaming platforms and that success could transfer over to BGT.
The change in format has been needed for the show with viewers complaining about it being stale last series and the views going down throughout the show.
This year's Britain's Got Talent started much earlier than usual with a massive format change to celebrate the show's 18th birthday on screens.
The series kicked off last Saturday for a February start with it usually getting underway in April but now we will see weekly episodes air for the next four months.
Live show semi-finals will also not take place across one week now with weekly semis airing too once we get to that stage of the competition.
