Although Knaresborough and Collingham were also well represented, winners based in Harrogate were in the ascendency this weekend and one of those, Nancy Song, surprised her audience by performing a folk song perfectly in Cantonese.

The Old Tyme Music Hall Song class was the highlight of Saturday evening. Over the weekend several performers were successful in more than one class.
