Â鶹Éç

An Essex contestant on a new Â鶹Éç talent show says it's just the start of something big.

Project Icon features 10 aspiring recording artists, but it's not just a singing competition - they have to complete challenges, such creating a viral TikTok video or performing an original signature song.

Charlie Baker, who's 22 years old and from north Essex, has been telling Â鶹Éç Essex how he almost missed out on his big chance.
