It is not British to say good things about your friends in the media, but hopefully you can on your own blog site. I believe Piers Morgan, my old editor at the News of the World (well young at 28 then!) has really come into his own in the recent series of Britain’s Got Talent.

He has done well in the previous two, but this time I felt his assured summaries and sense of humour meant he is becoming competition for Simon Cowell (watch out Piers!).

Never under-estimate the journalist’s ability to connect with an audience - even if he did called the Flawless/Diversity bout wrong! It was just about his only mis-step in the entire series.

Susan Boyle has sadly been taken to the Priory Clinic. I guess it was an emergency and she needed acute help, but wouldn’t it be better if BGT paid for her to take a nice holiday somewhere away from prying lenses, with her friends from home and not some star-struck contestant whose company she has kept recently?

She needs R and R …. RETURNED to RELATIVE normality.

Britain’s Got Talent need to sharpen up their act - or are they deliberately allowing people like Susan Boyle to self destruct because it is make headlines around the globe?It seems unreasonable to me to thrust people like her into the limelight and then not offer adequate media management.

Susan needs a calming influence around her, someone who can help the Press, give them some nice positive stories and stop her hitting the self destruct button, as seems to be happening.

The media are fascinated by the show, and by the Scottish singer with the big voice, so they are not simply going to go away. Fill their pages with good, positive stories and their appetites will be satiated. That would be my advice and it would not be hard to do.
