OFFICIALS at the Diss Corn Hall have extended the deadline for its unsigned bands competition.

The first heat of the Band Disscovery contest to find the best undiscovered music talent in south Norfolk is due to take place at the entertainments venue on February 18.

Organisers say they have had a 'fantastic' response, but have extended the deadline until January 21 to allow post-Christmas entries to be submitted.

The final of the bands competition will take place in the spring.
