Scarborough's 'Search For A Star' Winners Crowned At YMCA

The under 16's and over 16's finals took place on Saturday night, raising funds for the YMCA Theatre in Scarborough

A series of Heats have been taking place in recent months to find Scarborough's next big stars.

The Under 16's Final took place at 3pm followed by the Over 16's at 7:30pm.

Organisers thanked the star judges, acts and audience for making the event a huge success:

The talent and passion displayed from all of our acts really shone through making the decision for our amazing judges very difficult. A HUGE thank you to our wonderful judges Elizabeth Boag,  Alex Weatherhill, Cheryl Govan, KUILL and all those at the YMCA and beyond who helped with the production.

The winners were:

Under 16's
1st place: Nancy
2nd place: Archie McNally
3rd place: Not Just Twins

Over 16s
1st place: Becky Arundel
2nd place: Katy Ratts
3rd place: Molly Newsam

Sponsors of the event included SWC, Scarborough Rugby Club and Roscoe Rooms.

Inkahoots also supported the event.

A raffle took place with Kath winning a trip to London to watch a West End show.

Paddy from This Is The Coast compered the over 16's final and spoke afterwards to winner Becky Arundel and organisers of Search For A Star Devan Kellett and Tyler Jack-Smith:
