WOW, hasn't she got a fantastic voice. Susan is brilliant. I think 99.9% of the people watching thought she was going to be awful.

She was fantastic, one reason to say "never judge a book by its cover" and they admitted it also, brilliant too was the father and son taking off Michael Flatley and the Riverdance.

We were at Howletts Safari Zoo near Canterbury with the grandkids last week.

We walked past two women and one must have been well over six foot. My grandson went into hysterics laughing.

He overheard the tall one telling her friend that she had auditioned for BGT and the other one was falling over herself until she said she didn't get anywhere.

My grandson is still trying to work out what her act might have been.

Now when susan went on stage I thought she was one of those having a laugh. She was fantastic, brought tears to my eyes.
Loved the dad and son Greek Irish dancers. The family were good, their son is going to be really good if he gets some voice coaching. Loved the show it made me and my daughter laugh and cry! Can't wait till next show. Finger knitters. Are they joking?

Tonight, I converted a cynic to this programme!
Like everyone else, we thought Susan Boyle would be awful - she was awesome!!
As for the Greek 'Irish' dancers - well!! What a wonderful relationship they have, everyone expecting a serious greek dance - I haven't laughed so much for years!!
As someone in the 'Telegraph' said today - this is a bit like a freak show - but it's a British freak show and we should be proud of it!!
(8 Ferero Roche in a minute as an 'act' - give me strength!! LOL)

Susan Boyle gave me goosebumps from the first note.
Fantastic.
I wondered if here vocal range was a little limited, but could go far with some tuition (and a visual make-over),

Tiddler keeps replayingthe greek dancers over and over and laughs her head off.

I keep playing susan boyle the one on u tube is better than the itv site clip as you get all of it.
Simon was like a kid looking at a sweet shop and tiddler even asked me why he was smiling and sighed, guess he really enjoyed it

Just sidetracked myself, watched the youtube version and then some others and then a young lad called Troy Sivan, was on the Australian version of the programme! Lovely voice he has too.

Susan gave as good as she got at the beginning didn't she and then stunned everyone with the voice! She could be very attractive if the eyebrows and hair were sorted and the clothes, her skin looks good and nice teeth and features. I bet she is a great person to know.
