Peter the Duck dances on ice for K-Factor final


Croydon's very own television star, Peter the Wingless Duck appeared on the Not The Live Final of a television talent show on Saturday.

A Facebook campaign was started to have Peter reinstated on the show and after more than 3000 members joined he was allowed back on, only to be shunned again.

After weeks of being unsure of his fate the wingless fowl was chosen by Simon Cowell to star in the final and stepped onto the ice for the penultimate episode of the K-Factor.

But, once again, Peter experienced discrimination after one of the judges commented about his lack of balance on the ice, due to his missing wings.

The winner of the K-Factor will be announced on Saturday, March 20 on ITV at 7.30pm.

Peter the Wingless Duck is a superstar and joins a long list of famous and talented Croydon residents. It's great to have fun news in the papers to show it's not all doom and gloom! Go Peter! Go Croydon!
