Ashleigh and Pudsey sign book deal

'Britain's Got Talent' winners Ashleigh and Pudsey have signed a book deal.

The dog and his trainer have secured a £350,000 fee for an autobiography about them both, to hit the shops by Christmas 2012 when they will be appearing in pantomime in England's Woking, Surrey.

A source told the Daily Mirror: "Ashleigh and Pudsey are now millionaires thanks to this book deal and hopefully it is just the beginning.

"The book will be an autobiography, or an autobidography, as it is being dubbed. It will be out in December for Christmas and will tell the story of how Pudsey came to be such an amazing dog.

"The pair also have a panto deal and are heading out to America this month for chat show appearances, including a slot on the hugely popular Jay Leno show that could make them global stars."

The book is expected to have an inclusion by 'Britain's Got Talent' boss Simon Cowell, who claimed he could end his career now that he had realised his dream of seeing a dog act winning the show.
