This year we’ve had over 400 entries and again the standard just keeps getting better, so well done to all that entered. If you have made it into the final 40, keep an eye on this website where the final 10 will be announced soon. Also, if you are in the final 40, it is a VERY good idea to prepare a 200 word bio about yourself (in Word format), together with a good quality head and shoulder photograph of yourself. If you do reach the final 10 you will need to supply these items to us almost immediately. The final 10 will be notified by email or telephone within the next 7 days. The final 40 are (in no particular order): 1: Kyle Sharp A couple of important questions answered: Q: Can you give me some feedback on my entry? A: We get over 400 tapes in. It’s impossible to offer feedback on individual entries - sorry! Q: Can you tell me why I didn’t make it into the final 40? A: Yes, because you were not as good as those who did get into the final 40. This year’s final is on Sunday the 3rd February 2013 at the Spa center, Leamington Spa, doors at 1.00 starts at 2.00. Tickets will be on sale very soon. Watch this space for the final 10!
