A SCHOOLBOY will swap the classroom for the TV studio.

Frazer Powell (above), aged eight, of Heckmondwike will make his debut in a new Chicken Tonight TV advert.

Frazer, who has also appeared in a Tomy Tellytubby commercial, beat off much competition from boys across Yorkshire to be selected for the advert.

He will form part of the new Chicken Tonight family – Joanne Fields from Hessle, near Hull, Kieran O’Donnell from Selby and Emily Mott, 13, from Barnsley.

The advert is being made by So beautiful Production and the cast comes from Leeds-based agency Bond.

The filming is this Saturday at Millennium Square in Leeds, where Britain’s Got Talent duo Stavros Flatley will entertain the crowd.
