We've received more than 400 entries from boys, girls, men and women aged from just a few months old to 60 plus – all bidding to be the face behind an advertising campaign for a major high street optician.

We were looking for four faces to head the campaign. The categories were:

Girls and boys under 16
Men 16+
Women 16+
Men and women over 50

Judges have had a mammoth task in picking six finalists in each category from the hundreds of entries – but here are the final 24.

The winners will receive a fantastic pair of designer spectacles, a hair and make-up consultation and a photoshoot modelling Pagan and McQuade's exciting spectacles range.

And their face will be used in an advertising campaign on Pagan & McQuade's triple display screen in the window of their store in York Road, Hartlepool.

Winners will also receive a photograph to remember the occasion and may also be called upon again throughout 2008 to model the new season's styles as they arrive.
