The winner was selected by a combination of an expert jury and public voting. A total of 1,560 points are available, 780 points from the public and 780 points from the expert jury.

The expert jury was formed of fifteen members who awarded 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, and 4 points each. The four jury members who featured in the show:
