Heat 3 of the Summer Slam was a win for everyone there, with the fabulous support of the crew at the Southwark Hotel.
But top spot was won by Caroline Reid followed by runner-up Joel Callis.

What a night! Sell-out crowd, 10 contestants on top of their games, special guest, Sukhjit Kaur Khalsa, who had the audience hooked from word #1.
And the winner is Alison Bennett. Runner-up is Jason Marsiglia.
