Hi Paul, Charlie is from my home town of Droitwich. I've heard Charlie sing in the local theatre and he has a superb voice and real stage presence. We were all voting for him and were gutted when Piers Morgan was stupid enough to not vote him through.
Admittedly, Charlie's choice of song was not the best, but at least Simon recognised his true potential.
Anyway, I'm sure this won't be the last we hear of Charlie, he has a great future ahead of him and I for one, wish him all the luck in the world.
