COLCHESTER showed its talent last night at open auditions for Britain’s Got Talent.

The Bull, in Crouch Street, hosted an evening of incredible acts, pre-auditioning for next year’s hit ITV show.

Singers, magicians, ventriloquists and even a Bollywood dancer took to the stage from 6.30pm.

Pub owner Dave Richards said: “I think it went fairly well. It was a good turnout .

“We had 60 people turn up for auditions and it was a very good standard of people that turned up.”
