Suzan Boyle 1984 show
Susan Boyle was just a face in the crowd.
The rise of the 47-year-old Scot has been a true global phenomenon.
Viewers all over the world saw Boyle, with double chin, unkempt hair, frumpy appearance and eccentric demeanor, step onto the talent show stage and proclaim her dream of being a professional singer.
The judges rolled their eyes and the audience pulled incredulous faces. Onlookers, on set and at home, were rubbing their hands at the prospect of another hopeless, deluded loser being crushed by a withering Simon Cowell insult.
Then she opened her mouth and sang I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserable's.
Her voice confounded all expectations - the judges' eyes bulged, the crowd went wild and Boyle became an instant star.
Watch Susan Boyle perform I Dreamed A Dream and speak to BBC Scotland Ever since, the "fairytale" has travelled the globe and interest in the church volunteer has snowballed.
It is the story of a talent unearthed, but that does not fully explain why she has become such a sensation.
Locals in her home town of Blackburn, West Lothian, have got behind her Immediately after her performance, one of the judges, Amanda Holden, said they had been "very cynical", and that the performance was the "biggest wake-up call ever".
