A record attendance as thousands of lucky onlookers turn up to watch the annual Scotland's Got Nessie competition this morning at Loch Ness. Every year on this day hundreds of hopeful competitors turn up hoping to be selected as the famous Nessie to represent Scotland for the upcoming tourist season. As competitors showcased their neck lengths and strength of their roar, before being whittled down to a handful of hopefuls by judges, finalists then competed in a final hide and seek competition. One lucky winner has been selected to be Nessie and now all unlucky competitors will make their way through River Ness, Moray Firth and out to the North Sea, then travelling to compete in the upcoming Canada's Got Ogopogo competition in Okanagan Lake or Vermont's Got Champ competition in Lake Champlain.
