Britain's Got Talent runner up Susan Boyle was taken to The Priory clinic on Sunday evening, after doctors and police were called to her hotel at 6pm. The talent show singer has had a huge rise to success following her first audition for the programme where she wowed judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan. Her unique talent led to her appearance on a number of American TV shows, and put her firmly in the spotlight, with Monday's semi-final, and the Saturday night final bringing the entire experience to a head.

Yesterday was the last semi-final of Britain's Got Talent, with the absolutely fantastic young dancer Aiden Davis deservedly getting the public vote, and nervous young singer Hollie Steele getting the judges' nod to go through to tonight's big final! Other acts that performed were cuddly dancers The Dreambears, singing family Good Evans, juggler Luke Clements, singer and guitarist Mark Matcham, dance troupe DCD Seniors and soprano Greg Pritchard. It was an emotional night as young Hollie's nerves got the better of her and she had to stop her song, but Simon stepped in and demanded that she should be given a second chance.
