Paul Potts Wins Britain’s Got Talent
Paul Potts shouldn’t have any problems performing for the Queen - he’s already won the admiration of the King Of Reality TV. Yep, it’s a double celebration tonight. One for Paul (our Pavvi!), and the other for Simon Cowell and the triumph of Britain’s Got Talent.
I would have said Paul’s victory tonight was a dead cert, but in the fickle world of public voting, certainty doesn’t exist. The cutesy appeal of the younger acts may have cost him votes, or the off-the-wall comedy of monkey-toting Damon or the cocktail shaking Bar Wizards. The Kombat Breakers could have taken the urban/youth vote.
Nope, Paul Potts won Britain’s Got Talent tonight on the strength of his talent. After his final performance, I found myself in front of the TV applauding for him. I was the only person in the room, which was the sad thing!
It’s a bizarre occurrence, but this is the first time a member of our forum has made the transition from being a member of this site to being a winner of a reality TV show. Needless to say, we’re all immensely proud of Paul “Pavvi” Potts. Now we know why he chose that nickname for the forum!
Congratulations Paul, and in mobile phone language you’ll understand: The future’s bright…..

Well done, Paul Potts. Perhaps people will now, once and for all, let you put those youthful Khmer Rouge transgressions behind you.
