.....AND AFTER A QUICK CHANGE....!

East Yorkshire's best ever talent competition, in association with 96.9 Viking FM, is now in its final stages at the Fox and Coney Inn, South Cave. The Fox Factor competitors are now singing their final song of the competition.

A change of clothes for everyone! So far we've heard "Dancing in the Street" from Becca Baldwin - another great performance. Beth O'Grady with "Let's Stick Together", followed by Dean Wildbore, donning a Bon Jovi wig, singing "You Give Love a Bad Name!" Weird but true - and strangely excellent!

Georgia Drew was up next with the classic "Can't Buy Me Love" but judges said that although she sang it brilliantly, she lacked stage confidence. "You're better than you think!" they said.

Jack Craven gave an "original and inspired" performance of "Alright Now!" He was told: "You could win this competition!" Meanwhile, Jess Bannister gave a stunning performance - the best version of her song ever heard, according to head judge Vince Garcia. After Kristian Eastwood's "Take What You Want" the panel told him: "You're right up there with everyone else. This is going to be so difficult!" I know what they mean!

Laura Prescott impressed, as expected, with "You Can't Hurry Love!" She has been consistent throughout this competition.

Judges absolutely raved about next finalist up to the plate - Olivia Windmill. Olivia sang Kings of Leon's "Sex on Fire" - and she's now been branded a Rock Chick! Well deserved, too - she was totally fab! Meanwhile, another belter from Sara Thrustle, with Heart's "Alone". Absolutely amazing!

Summer Rozenbroek's "Let's Stay Together" was fantastic! Judges said she absolutely smashed it! Meanwhile, Tamar Draper gave an awesome rendition of the T.Rex classic "Get It On!"

Last up was ex-X Factor bootcamper Tobias Sumpton and "Stuck In the Middle With You!" And what a nightmare - poor Tobias forgot his words at the end. He's been so good throughout the competition - will that have cost him the title?

It's wide open now. Voting restarts now. Keep checking the blog and @foxandconeyinn on Twitter for the latest!
