Thanks so much to each & everyone one of you for all your amazing messages of support & to those who voted. Honestly it’s the most challenging thing I’ve ever done & makes Hell’s Kitchen look like a walk in the park ?. Roll on to Sunday’s show where myself & the guys perform our FABULOUS group number.
