'Poshest' Ever 'Britain's Got Talent' Contestant: Who Is Lettice Rowbotham?

  • 25 April 2014

So, Britain’s Got Talent fans, there is a brand new Marmite contestant. By that we mean, people are either going to absolutely love her or hate her. We’re most definitely on the love side of things, we’ve gone mad for nutty violinist Lettice Rowbotham. BGT fans who like their contestants a little more rough and ready will hopefully eat their words once Lettice whips out her violin.

While some may argue that BGT is a chance to find undiscovered talent and Lettice is certainly not living on the breadline with no chance of ever being heard, they forget that ultimately it is a talent show and she certainly has that in abundance. While she may have performed alongside chart toppers, this is Lettice’s chance to show her skills as a soloist, an opportunity she may not have come across otherwise. Her skill is marketable and she’s a fresh, engaging contestant with a huge personality. Lettice, you’ve got our vote!
