In all honesty the chances of anything being won are still slim, but there is a much greater chance with it down to the judges to decide who the winners are – simply making this final cut is a massive achievement though, so I think those featured all deserve a big hand.
Think positive thoughts though, now the final round has been reached anything is possible for Vital Pompey and Chix – watch this space…
