So despite a last minute change of location, the first New Act Competition of 2026 was a cracking show with some truly stellar performances. It was a packed room at The Royal George and the crowd were pretty unanimous in their choice of winner. Lucas Jones Ho took a resounding first place with Sam Hainsworth in second and Susan Heather Kitcatt and Ellie Bernard in joint third place. All four of them will now go through to our All Stars heats, starting in February with the final on March 31st at The Phoenix, Cavendish Square.
You can catch Lucas again at The Bell on February 3rd when he returns to do his paid guest spot.
