Britain's Got Talent winner Axel Blake has denied claims the show is "fixed" and has hit back at people who suggested he was "already famous".

Many felt the comedian's "fame" had helped him after he already has his own show on Amazon Prime.

COMEDIAN Axel Blake was crowned the winner of Britain's Got Talent 2022 after a dramatic live series finale on Sunday night.

I though BGT was about finding new talent?”“Axel Blake, very polished, just check out his website, IMDb entry, Amazon Prime show or his live tour dates… not a new act by a long shot, another ringer like Loren Allred, show is an absolute joke,” a third posted.While someone else echoed: “‘Think we have found a star’ how embarrassing that Simon Cowell doesn't
