It wouldn't be a BGT gallery without Subo! Susan Boyle didn't even win the show, she was the runner up in 2009 when Diversity won. Despite that, she's topped the album chart in the UK and over in the US, and had her own headline tour.

Singer Ronan Parke was the runner-up in 2011 when Scottish performer Jai McDowall won the show. Both of them had an album on Simon Cowell's record label - but both singers were dropped after poor sales.

Simon Cowell always wanted an animal act to win, and in 2012 he got his wish. Ashleigh and Pudsey have appeared on CBBC show Who Let The Dogs Out and now Pudsey is starring in his own film, voiced by David Walliams.
