The winner of this year's Miss Liverpool contest said she thought she was "too old" to enter.
Georgia Austin, from Childwall, said she had always wanted to do pageants when she was younger, but it wasn't until this year she decided to enter. The 25-year-old said she wondered if it was "her time" and applied for the contest.
Speaking to the ECHO, the professional dancer said: "I had always wanted to do pageants when I was a lot younger, it was something I always wanted to do. I don't know what it was about this year but someone kept telling me last year - next year is going to be your year.
