Tipton's pride for BGT's Amy Lou Smith

Available for over a year

A Britain's Got Talent contestant who watched her audition from a hospital bed said nothing about making it to the final seemed real. Amy Lou Smith, from Tipton near Dudley, performed in Sunday's final but missed out on the £250,000. She told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ WM she "never in a million years" thought she would make it to the last handful of acts to go before the judges. Ms Smith, who works in a tanning salon, auditioned for the show in March while 30 weeks pregnant and gave birth to her daughter Aida the day her performance was televised in April.
