Home News IN BRIEF

*An NHS dentist has vowed to keep fixing teeth for the next three months despite landing a 1m record deal as an operatic tenor.

His first album, out in September, is a collection of pop covers including "Life On Mars" by David Bowie, "How Soon Is Now?" by The Smiths and "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol. He said: "[Sony] understand my eclectic taste. Who needs yet another version of 'Nessun Dorma'?"
