RUSSELL WATSON - WATSON PULLS OUT OF TALENT SHOW

WATSON PULLS OUT OF TALENT SHOW

British opera star RUSSELL WATSON has been forced to pull out of his appearance in BBC TV talent show JUST THE TWO OF US, after he was told by doctors it was too soon after undergoing brain surgery. The 39-year-old singer had a brain tumour removed in September (06) and hoped to be well enough to perform alongside young soap opera actress LOUI BATLEY on the duets programme, which starts on 2 January (06). However, doctors have told Watson not to appear on the show. Watson's spokesman says he is "extremely disappointed".
