LUCKY Worcester youngsters are celebrating after bagging tickets to watch their favourite band Busted perform live in concert - thanks to the Evening News.

Ten-year-old Thomas Wakley and 13-year-old Alexandra Cave-Brown-Cave beat more than 220 other hopefuls who entered the Evening News competition to win tickets to see the rock-pop trio.

The youngsters won two tickets each to watch Busted boys Matt, Charlie and James perform at Birmingham's NEC on Wednesday, December 1.

Their prize also includes return coach travel from Worcester and they scooped the tickets after correctly filling in a Busted word search printed in the Evening News last month.

Five runners-up will each be given a Busted on Tour book.
