Harry jumped up and down and screamed after hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly called his name.   

‘I can’t believe what is going on,’ he said. ‘Thank you everyone so much, I genuinely feel like everyone has been behind me. This has been the most incredible journey.’

He faced off against dance troupe The Blackouts in the final two, with the group remaining good spirits after his win, saying it was ‘well deserved’.

His routine began with a card trick where he correctly pulled out all the cards each of the judges had picked.

In a pre-recorded video of himself sky-diving, he correctly predicted the cards each judge would select.

The budding star received praise across the board from judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli following his act.

Alesha said: ‘Every time we see you, you up the level, you take it to the next level and your imagination and the way you present your act is just astonishing. You’re so likeable.’

The former Mis-Teeq star also predicted that Harry was in with a ‘good chance’ of winning, and that she was ‘rooting’ for him to take the crown.

Former West End star Amanda was in complete agreement with Alesha as she became emotional that Harry was able to represent his hometown of Blackpool with his act.

Simon was quick to point out that Harry was ‘so good, but so humble’ and praised the magician for choosing to make things as big as possible in the final.

He added: ‘This show, genuinely, is about finding people like you who, for whatever reason, haven’t had the break they deserve. And you do deserve this break, I really think the audience are going to get behind you.’

'I can't believe what is going on,' he said. 'Thank you everyone so much, I genuinely feel like everyone has been behind me. This has been the most incredible journey'

Harry started performing magic tricks at the age of 10. Speaking previously on Lorraine, he said: ‘Overnight I was obsessed. I love creating a memory and experience with someone.

‘Saturday was the biggest night of my life and hopefully for those two it will be one of their biggest moments too. I found it emotional I was trying to hold it together.’

He added that he has watched Britain’s Got Talent since he was seven. 

‘It has always been a dream of mine to perform on the show. To finally do it and take that plunge was the best thing I have ever done,’ he said.
