Burnham's Matt Bowkett keeps TV viewers
on the edge of their seats
Followers
of Burnham-On-Sea fashion student Matt Bowkett were kept on the
edge of their seats this week when, once again, he only just managed
to survive on Sky One's reality TV show Project Catwalk.

21-year-old from Stoddens Road just managed to scrape through
to the last eight contestants on last week's programme - and this
week had an even more nail-biting time.
Tasked
with creating a wedding dress for model Kate, pictured here, he
struggled with the designs and used the wrong fabric at one stage.
The
panel of judges - which includes model
Liz Hurley - concluded that his design was "boring."
She
told him that he needed to stand up for himself and make sure
that his opinions about designs were fully considered, especially
if he felt they were not working.
Matt
was left in the bottom two of the remaining eight contestants
and faced the possibility of going home. Several of the contestants
believed he should pack his bags.

a very relieved Matt somehow survived another week and said he
"wanted to put the show behind him and move on after a disappointing
week."
He
goes through to the next episode of the TV series next Thursday
when he'll be among the final seven contestants.
Burnham-On-Sea.com
exclusively reported in January how Matt is bidding for fashion
stardom by appearing as a contestant on the TV series.
Sky
One's Project
Catwalk gives young fashion designers the chance of a lifetime
to have their collection shown at this year's London Fashion Week.
With £20,000 and a feature in Elle magazine up for
grabs, the competition is intense.
Project
Catwalk airs on Sky One at 8pm every Thursday. Burnham-On-Sea.com
is following Matt's progress during the series.
