The hunt is on for Cornwall's answer to Taylor Swift or Justin Bieber as scouts for TV talent show The Voice head to the Duchy.

One of the team will be visiting Truro and Penzance on May 4 and Wadebridge and Newquay on May 5, seeking solo singers or duos with talent and vocal ability to appear on series five of the singing show.

A spokesperson for the show said: "If you think you have what it takes, come down and become part of the search for a star."

Entrants must be 16 years of age or older on June 17 and have the right to live and work in the UK.
