BRITAIN’S Got Talent winner Paul Potts arrived at Newcastle City Hall last night mid-way through his UK tour.

After the massively popular reality TV show it wasn’t surprising that his tour would sell-out fast, and never a city to disappoint, Newcastle’s operatic lovers packed the venue to its brim.

The show took on an unusual format with the support act, Natasha Marsh, performing at random intervals throughout Paul’s set.

The man himself kicked off the evening with a rose in hand and his now famous voice filling the room.

Early on, he surprised the audience by taking on the REM ballad Everybody Hurts, giving it a new lease of life.

Paul obviously wanted to show his range as a singer and mixed classic religious hymns like Ave Maria with songs from West Side Story.
