TONIGHT (Thursday, August 12) sees the quarter-final of a talent show in memory of a murdered tot.

Three-year-old Francesca Bimpson died when petrol was poured through the letterbox of the family home in Liverpool in December 2008.

Merseyside Has Talent will take place at the Windle Labour Club on Dentons Green Lane from 7pm.

All money raised will go towards the Francesca Bimpson Foundation and create a support centre for victims of serious crime in Merseyside.

The overall winner will get the chance to perform at the Liverpool Echo Arena next year.
