THE battle for the coveted Pub Idol crown continued this week.

The spot light shone on four contestants as they took part in a sing-off in the second heat of the seven heat show.

But it was bank worker Tammy Hunter who scooped the top accolade.

And she felt "happy" after she performed her winning rendition of Zoe Birkett Get Happy.

She said: "I entered the competition last year and made it in to the finals and hopefully I will do even better this year."

The bank worker, who loves Take That, left the boy band songs at home for the event.

Miss Hunter also sang Show Me Heaven by Maria McKee and said it was a "brilliant atmosphere".

She said: "The crowd was great to everyone who performed and clapped us all, which helped to get rid of the nerves."

Compere Ian Mclane congratulated all the contestants who took part.

He said: "It has been an excellent second heat. "Unfortunately two competitors had to drop out of the event but the four remaining participants did really well. "We are now looking forward to the next heat of the competition, which will take place at Platforms, Scunthorpe."

There is a video of the contestants' performances on this site.
