i thought that susan boyle thing was really sad. the way everyone thought she was gonna be shit cos shes not pretty and (clearly told to play up to the cameras) a bit crazy.
i didnt find it very inspiring at all, just made me think on a downer about closed minded people

i find it really patronizing and staged

makes me feel sad that this is considered such a good programme

whhhhhhhhhhhy whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhy!!!!!!

The Torygraph is actually championing this as “how TV/media used to be”. which is not at all untrue – in the 1960s there was a woman from Essex about the same build as Susan Boyle called “Mrs Mills” who used to play piano (in the traditional East End/cockney style) and got spotted by a talent scout and had loads of hit albums!
