I entered the competition because I wanted to be noticed And have a chance with my singing
Buti it was really fantastic when i walked on I found it very nerve-racking to begin with
But once i settle down and I began to sing And the audience accepted me more I relaxed and began to enjoy it

Two and a half million Have watched that clip so far How do you feel?
Gobsmacked! Absolutely Gobsmacked!
Whats it been like on the streets of Blackburn? Everybody is wanting my autograph I'm telling you its really surreal
How did you go into this? Because your a shy person What made you push yourself for this?
Basically I wanted to fulfll A wish to my mother
That i wanted to do something With my life and not only that I think i had a little bit more to offer
So what had you done previously? Previously i have been in choirs I have been in school productions, Karaoke
You name it I was in it And the people that heard you sing at Karaoke
Had they said "You have got to go on Britains Got Talent?"
They did mention it once or twice And I said to them "Well i will have a go it and see how far i get
Lets just have a look At what the judges had to say About your performance
Without a doubt that Is the biggest surprise I have had In my three years on the show
When you stood there With that cheeky grin And said "I want to be like Elaine Paige"
And everyone was laughing at you No-One is laughing now! That was STUNNING!
An incredible performance (APPLAUSE)
The judges loved you The audience loved you
Were you confident that When you stepped out on that stage You would get a good reaction?
I didn't know what kind of reaction I was going to get if I am honest But you just get on with it
As your performance progressed Everybody started stand up Could you actually see that past the lights?
I Couldn't no I had my eyes closed Half the time
Did you get a chance to chat The judges afterwards? No I Didn't, No
You Don't do that anyway Its unprofessional
How far do you think You can go with this Susan?
Through to the bitter end But I will do something Wee baby steps
