After 2.5 million votes, Ant and Dec announced that the winning 2017 act was Tokio, to his complete surprise.
Shocked, 32-year-old Tokio said: “I can’t believe what has just happened!”
Lead judge Simon Cowell gushed: “This was the most important thing. I’m thrilled for him.”
David Walliams added: “It’s fantastic. He is going to be a fantastic ambassador for the show. He oozes talent.
Alesha Dixon said: “I’m so happy! He wears his heart on his sleeve.”
Calling the winner, Amanda Holden said: “Do you know what, I thought he would! It feels as cool as when Diversity won.”
It came as the show suffered a few setbacks during this evening’s final competition heat.
DNA duo made an numbers blunder during their act, and lead Merseygirls dancer Julia Carlile almost took a tumble.
The 15-year-old performer had introduced a chair as part of their finale routine, but it was not fixed to the ground or supported.
