Iain helps choose Carnival Queen
Judging took place this weekend of the annual Miss Carnival Queen Competition at a packed Headland Social Club.
Iain was part of a panel of five who had a tough job of judging the ten young women who took part. The panel also comprised of Chair of Hartlepool Borough Council, Cllr Carl Richardson, Carnival King, Mark Lupton, his daughter and Carnival Queen 2009, Chelsea Lupton and Hartlepool Mail reporter Emma Greenhalgh.
They gave points out of 10 for looks, personality and appearance which were added up to reveal the overall winner.
A delighted Adele McFarlane, 18 walked away with the crown and a £50 cash prize.
Iain said
"I thought it was very competitive and very close this year. All the contestants conducted themselves with real panache and dignity and it's a great event on the Headland".
