A talented teenager is set to take on the role of a musical supremo for a prime-time television show.

Angie Diggens, 17, will be shown singing for the cameras on ITV's Stars in Their Eyes on Saturday.

She will be appearing as one of her musical heroines, Sarah Brightman, but she is keeping tight-lipped about the song she performed.

Angie, of Field Way, Wivenhoe, said: "If my mum has her way, the whole of Essex will be watching it, so I'm really nervous. At least I'll be able to relax when it has been screened."

Angie said she has watched Ms Brightman's performances since she was young as her grandparents are fans.
