IT will be an emotional journey and whoever wins will be on cloud nine.

Yes, the search for who has the Manx2 Factor is continuing.

The competition offers a chance to feature in the safety briefing videos on Manx2.com aircraft and the finalists have been selected for "boot camp".

With more than 120 entries from across the Island, judges met last week to pick 20 children to compete to appear in the video.

This Sunday the finalists will be given red carpet treatment at the Sefton Hotel in Douglas, complete with Sharon Osbourne and Katie Price lookalikes.

Along with judges from Manx2.com, the Department of Education and Children and the Sefton Group they will pick a number of children for the speaking parts and the rest of those auditioned will be offered non-speaking roles in the videos.

The competition, run in partnership with the Department of Education and Children, was open to all Isle of Man primary school children in years one to six.

Manx2.com chairman Noel Hayes said: "We were delighted with both the volume and quality of entries.

"Safety is always our first priority and we hope that by producing a unique, unusual and entertaining video to show on our new large format video screens we will get the full attention of our passengers.

"We will also be showing Isle of Man Tourism and Manx National Heritage videos which will further help us to fly the Manx flag and carry the Manx message far and wide."
