SCOTLANDS favourite granny Janey Cutler had no regrets last night despite rivals Spelbound winning Britain's Got Talent. After a shaky start, the 81-year-old wowed the judges with a show-stopping performance of Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien (No Regrets) in the talent show's climax. The gymnastic group were last to perform and saw off tough competition from dance act Twist 'N' Pulse, who were runners-up, and wonderkid drummer Kieran Gaffey in third place. Janey messed up her timing a little but still did Scotland proud. Judge Piers Morgan said: "You are over 80 years old and I could tell you weren't going to let it beat you. You're a remarkable lady." Amanda Holden said: "You asked me for my autograph in the corridor the other day, well now I will be asking for yours. The last part of that was terrific." Simon Cowell said: "You are one gutsy lady." Her pals cheered her on by throwing a final party in her local pub. It was standing room ony in the Victoria Bar in Hamilton as Janey took to the stage. Christine Watson, 51, from Blantyre, said: "I was sick when she missed her timing right at the start but she caught up well and that is what is important. "I really think she deserved to win as she did so well and this was her big chance." Barmaid Margaret Coghill, 52, from Hamilton, said: "She was absolutely fantastic. Janey has done so well and we are all absolutely over the moon for her. "We are so proud of her. She is the best, despite the result." Spelbound - made up of 13 acrobats, aged from 12 to 24 - jumped and screamed as host Declan Donnelly announced they had won the £100,000 prize. Member Alex Uttley, 24, said: "This is unbelievable, thank you to everyone who voted for us. "All our hard work has paid off." Cowell said: "This show is called Britain's Got Talent and the right guys and girls won on the night. I am very proud of you, well done."Dance act Spellbound wins Britain's Got Talent but singing gran Janey Cutler makes Scotland proud
