The ten-strong dance troupe from Essex and London gained the most public votes in the competition, beating Scottish singer Susan Boyle into second place. Susan Boyle and Julian Smith were gracious as they accepted defeat in the Britain's Got Talent Grand Final. The pair were pipped to the post in a public vote in which more than one million votes were cast. Susan, previously the bookies' favourite to win the show, clapped happily and told Ant and Dec "The best people won. They are very entertaining lads - lads, I wish you all the best". She went on to tell Stephen Mulhern on More Talent, "I think the best people won - I really do." And asked about her own plans she said, "I hope to get an album out - I'll just play it by ear.
