February saw the launch of an international competition by The Underwater Channel (UWC) and PADI to find the Face of Australia for The Underwater Channel. Their quest - to find an ace Aussie diver / presenter who, with their regular TV dive reports would light up diving in Australia for the global viewers of UWC - the new web TV Channel for divers - and armchair divers!.

Candidates were asked back in February to send in videos pitching for the job and your votes have now got us down to the 3 fab finalists you see above!

We have kept their identity a secret until today but can now reveal they are Bess, Josh and Hayley! Please log on to the link below to watch each of them telling Aussie comedian Mark Little details of a dive report they would do as The Face of Australia! Please log on to the link below, watch their responses and then – most importantly - cast your vote and send the winner off to Sydney to collect their prize!
