West Lothian star Susan Boyle made an impressive return to the stage as she appeared on the finale of Britain's Got Talent on Sunday.
On June 4, she admitted the comeback nearly didn't happen after she suffered from a stroke in April. But she clearly had nothing to fear as she belted out I Dreamed a Dream with the cast of Les Misérables.
Susan rose to fame back in 2009 when she auditioned for the talent show singing the same song and shocked the nation with her mesmerising vocals.

Speaking about making a return to the ITV talent show, the 62-year-old said on Sunday: "It's extra special for me actually, last April there, I suffered a minor stroke and I thought it'd be crazy to be back on stage and I have done it."
As the Mirror writes, Simon Cowell went on to praise the star, and admitted he had known the singing sensation had been unwell during her secret health struggles.
Viewers rushed to social media to compliment Susan, fondly known as Su-Bo, on her return to the stage, with one tweeting: "Huge huge respect for Susan Boyle. Post-stroke and absolutely smashing it on BGT tonight! Incredible!"
Susan has kept away from much of the limelight after her BGT stint back in 2009.
Susan's debut album, I Dreamed A Dream, was a huge success and was one of the biggest releases of the 21st century, selling more than 10 million copies across the world.
The star is said to have made over £22million during her career, but she's not one to "flash the cash". While some stars may be tempted to move into larger homes or even abroad, Susan has stayed loyal to West Lothian and still lives in her childhood home.
She has revealed that she had some of the rooms refurbished but still very much loves living in her former council house. The singer spent £111,000 on her semi-detached property and said she has turned it into her 'dream home'.
While other stars may also look at holidays to luxurious destinations like the Maldives, Susan prefers to spend her vacations closer to home. In a rare snap, she celebrated her birthday in April and was pictured in a rare snap at the Knock House Hotel in Ireland.
It wasn't clear if she is currently dating, but SuBo once admitted it wasn't "serious at the moment" with an American doctor.
Explaining she didn't feel it was fair on him to put his life story in the public eye for all to see, Susan was rumoured to have been enjoy his company.
Speaking to The Mirror in 2016 she joked: "I will send him a picture of my weight loss – if he’s a good boy! I do enjoy male companionship."
The singer will also take to the stage at the National Prayer Breakfast for Scotland in Edinburgh during the summer.
Speaking about the performance, she said: “I am thrilled to be performing at the Scottish Prayer Breakfast. My faith has always been my strength and backbone throughout my career.”
Susan will perform I Dreamed A Dream and a version of The Prayer, duetting with fellow BGT star, Jai McDowall, who joined the Scot on her UK tour.
