EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 9th April 1986, we witness the anticipation and excitement as talented acts line up for their big moment in the third heat of the Examiner Search for a Star competition at Huddersfield's Adega nightclub. The atmosphere is electric, with each performer eagerly awaiting their turn to showcase their skills and captivate the audience. After an intense night of incredible performances, pop group China Rose emerged victorious, securing their spot in the grand final on April 30. Their exceptional talent and stage presence propelled them to first place. Following closely behind were female duo Merangue, who claimed second place with their harmonious melodies that left everyone spellbound. Pop group Ramkee secured third place with their infectious energy and catchy tunes. The panel of judges responsible for selecting these remarkable winners consisted of Mr Ian Challenger from Greenall Whitley brewery, Mrs Barbra Farrand - the Adega manageress - whose expertise in entertainment was invaluable, Mr Roger Saunders - Examiner advertising manager - who brought his keen eye for talent to the table, and creative designer Mr Brian Long. As we delve into this nostalgic photograph captured during a vibrant era in history (the 1980s), it serves as a reminder of how competitions like these provided aspiring artists with opportunities to shine while bringing communities together through shared love for music and performance.
