The last time I saw @XanderArmstrong in person I was a young singer taking part in @BBCSoP School Choir of the year - Tonight I saw him dressed as a unicorn popping balloons on a bouncy hopper! Really enjoyed being in the audience tonight 😂 @joelycett #latenightlycett

Audition season begins for me. It’s SO expensive tho! £280 for 3 auditions, 2 return train journeys £90 and because 2 are both at 10am one day after the other a hotel room for 2 nights…£350. I’ll let you do the maths…
