Emily at the Christmas Lights Switch On....
My daughter Emily (aged 10) entered Century Radio's "Xmas Factor" competition with her version of "Winter Wonderland".
She was selected as one of two winners and got to sing in front of around 5000 people in Albert Square, Manchester at the switch on of the 2008 Manchester Christmas Lights!
Needless to say this was a huge event and a top day for all of us!
Century looked after us really well and our thanks go out to Lisa and Laura, who looked afer Emily and Anneli all day, all the Century staff (who were amazing) and particularly Dave Shearer who sorted our meeting with Leon Jackson...
Emily, being an artist for the day, got to meet all the other performers backstage including....
Century FM's Ditchy and Salty, Debs and Scott and Glen (who interviewed us live on the night), Alicia Dixon, Gemma Atkinson, Strike (from Britain's Got Talent) , the cast of "Wizard of Oz" currently at the Lowry, and a private meeting with Leon Jackson (last years X-Factor winner)....
Pics below, plus Emily's recording that won her the place...
