“Britain is often described as a Godless nation these days yet Saturday evening saw millions of viewers united in prayer: “Dear God, please let the dancing dog win.”

The terracotta-tanned troupe scoop £100,000 – which won’t go nearly as far between its 13 members as it would have for the solo performers – along with a slot at the Royal Variety Performance in December.”
I don’t usually watch BGT but did last night - thought the 10 acts were pretty good .
What did you think - and were you praying for the Dog ?
