AUDITIONS for the hit TV show Britain’s Got Talent are to take place in the North-East next week.
Hundreds of hopefuls are expected at St James’ Park in Newcastle trying to impress judges including Simon Cowell and win a place on the show.
Auditions will take place at the stadium between 11am and 6pm on Saturday, October 11.
Previous participants include million-selling singers Susan Boyle and Paul Potts, dance group Diversity and shadow theatre group Attraction.
Executive producer Amelia Brown said: “Britain’s Got Talent has an amazing record of celebrating fantastic talent and changing people’s lives – from Susan Boyle and Diversity through to Paul Potts, Ashleigh and Pudsey and this year’s winners Collabro.
“They all took a chance and applied for the show and that’s what we want you to do this year. We can’t wait to see the talent that Newcastle has to offer.”
