Britain's Got Talent 2009

As always happens John, the media will build Susan up and then knock her down I expect.
The attention she has been given must be really overwhelming for her, and she hasn't even won the contest yet!

The pressure does seem to have got to Susan.
The newspapers report of her behaviour at the hotel, but apparently it's no surprise to the people in the village where she lives who are aware of Susans ranting and her temper.
We wish her well in the final and hope her personality doesn't interfere with her chances of winning.

[mariana44]

I am feeling sorry for Susan-she did not ask or expect all this attention--it is just unprecedented for this type of show--she is bound to be feeling some sort of reaction.

[Marian]

I even saw a rumour that she was thinking of pulling out of Saturday's final. That would be a big shame.

[mariana44]

Yes, I agree-I am sure that she would not have wished for all this attention, and perhaps she thinks that it may be unjustified.

After all-she has not won yet-although I am still expecting her to--but she has got some strong acts against her in the final.

[john]

I hope she doesn't pull out of the final, I hope she will still win it.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

This is what happens to the winners or likely winners of shows like BGT. From that time on they are watched and followed Twenty four hours a day, and all their lifes history become news, and even looking and finding skeletons in the cupboard will be revealed, and Susan has surely created more publicity than any other candidate in the history of BGT.
Far too much pressure for someone like Susan.

I was VERY surprised to see "Two Grand" go through-I was sure it would be young Callum. I had guessed that Julian would go through--he sounded good again tonight-the rest of the acts were quite forgettable !!

[Lena & Harry Smith]

We were also surprised that the 2GRAND got through Now and again sentiment takes over which can often rule out the chance for others more worthy of a place.
Although I'm not totally in favour of young children performing alongside adults I thought Callum was the best act of the night and should have gone through with Julian.
What natural rhythm, personality and talent he has, and still smiling even after hearing the result.
We'll see what happens tonight.

[john]

Julian definitely deserved to get through last night, he was the best act of the night. I too was surprised that 2GRAND got through and Callum didn't get through, but on the whole I agree with the top three of the night.

[paul jh]

Are they still putting acts through to the finals? There will be so many to perform. I'm still hoping that Shaun sings well and wins.

I expect a report in the forum on Saturday night or early Sunday morning.

Having recieved a website from Michele Monro to click on to British Has Talent.. I listened to 2 grand,,, Callum and` Julian ... All so entertaining.... Thought Julian played his Sax....more beautiful and sensitive than I believed A Sax could be `played... I feel happy to be`able to share my thoughts with all of you so involved with all of this talent... Is tomorrow( SAT) the big night ?? Hoping I can connect and find out the results ? Best wishes to all Happy Friday

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Well done to Aidan voted number One tonight. He performed well, has confidence and a happy personality, but this series has had it's moments, and tonight there was another one.
Holly's nerves took over, but she recovered enough to sing again and has a place in the final tomorrow night, and although from another duff line up she deserved it, I dread to think what would have happened if she hadn't have been chosen.
Not a lot to say about the rest

[john]

It was a shame about Holly tonight, it was awful seeing her cry like that. I feel as though there should be an age limit in a show like this, or even have an adults show and a children's show as I think the pressure is too much. I knew Aiden would get through though, he was very good, but the rest were pretty rubbish I thought.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Hi Lori, that's nice to know that you can watch and follow "Britains Got Talent" and stay up to date with what's happening on the show.
Julian plays the saxophone really well and he has a very good chance of winning the competition which is tomorrow night, but of course he has One or Two strong contenders.
The more I watch the show, the more I hope that Susan Boyle will go out there, and show them that she is still way above the others , which frankly shouldn't be too difficult.
