There's something not right with Susan Boyle!

That's because she has learning difficulties

Read earlier she's in line to make a fortune. Probably best someone different won it as the singers will make it on their own anyway. The dance groups will have some success, but not as much as Susan Boyle will have. Was disappointed Stavros Flatley wasn't in top 3. Would like to see the rankings for all 10 acts tonight to see where they were placed.

Yes read this today. She has learning difficulties from complications during her birth so people should ease up on the comments. I may have made a few myself.

Give over Tony!! Obviously everyone should be allowed to feel better about themselves by making snide remarks about a mentally unstable 40-something!!!!

Maybe if you or a family member (god forbid) had similar problems you would think differently.

Yeah I reckoned it was but even in it I took offence to it. Just a touchy subject with me

I thought she was released from one to appear in the show and is merely returning. Could be wrong.

Susan Boyle deserves enormous credit!

Just think for a minute....you go for an audition, plucked from obscurity, the world's press on your door step, preparing to go onto a stage and perform in front of a studio crowd like that, never mind the TV audience.....and perform as she did.

Nothing short of amazing.

I think it says alot about society in general, we focus on her weakneses rather than her enormous achievement.

Susan gets special treatment. Apparently she ran down the hallway after the result shouting, "I hate this show!" and was taken to the Priory for treatment. Is unfair as I ran down the hall of my own house shouting the same thing and was told to 'shut up.'

I was chatting to one of your sons at the game yesterday and he was telling me that. He told me, you were running around in your adult nappy at the time, whilst he bought the girlfriend back to meet the family.
