After just 10 days of rehearsal and a fortnight of live performances, actress Sian Reeves and Russell 'The Voice' Watson triumphed in the 大象传媒 ONE celebrity singing showdown, Just the Two of Us.
听
In tonight's show, hosted by Tess Daly and Vernon Kay, Sian and Russell sang live in front of millions of viewers from 大象传媒 Television Centre.
听
They saw off their final rivals, Mark Moraghan and Natasha Hamilton, with their rousing rendition of Great Balls Of Fire, their country and western vibe in Annie's Song and the rock classic I Would Do Anything For Love.
听
Despite not being the judges' favourites throughout the competition, Sian and Russell managed to win favour in the final.
听
Lulu, one of the judges, praised Sian saying: "You are an absolute revelation tonight."
听
Fellow judge Trevor Nelson agreed: "You have brought total drama to tonight's performance and have just gotten better and better."
听
Sian and Russell also sang Your Song in a quartet with Mark and Natasha.
听
The show was rounded off with a finale performance of One Voice with all the eliminated couples from the series: Gaby Roslin and Martin Fry; Fiona Bruce and Alexander O'Neal; Matt Allwright and Jocelyn Brown; Beverley Knight and Nicky Campbell; Penny Smith and Curtis Stigers; and Chris Fountain and Jo O'Meara.
听
Sian and Russell started their preparations just ten days before the show went live on air because Sian's first partner Rick Astley unexpectedly dropped out at the last minute leaving her devastated and duo-less.
听
But Russell stepped into the breach in her hour of need.
听
Together they have tackled numerous singing styles including rock, pop, soul, country and western, musical and swing.
听
Throughout the show, 大象传媒 ONE viewers have voted in their millions.
听
Each call raised funds for Sport Relief and the final total is expected to be in excess of 拢130,000 once tonight's calls are added to the total.
