Scarlett Moffatt facing Comic Relief challenge of becoming opera singer in just 24 hours

A very nervous Scarlett Moffatt will sing live on TV as she and other female celebrities are challenged to become an opera singer in just 24 hours for Comic Relief.

In what could possibly be her biggest challenge since doing I'm A Celebrity at the end of 2016, Scarlett will join other female celebrities like Tamzin Outhwaite and Call The Midwive's Helen George for the ambitious challenge which will see them perform live on BBC on Friday night from iconic venue The London Coliseum, accompanied by the English National Opera orchestra and chorus.

And, as well as their performance being seen by millions of viewers at home, the group, also including EastEnders and Strictly star Nina Wadia, will sing in front of an audience of 2,000 die-hard opera fans. And the most challenging part of the whole thing is that the ladies are getting just 24 hours of training to be ready for their big night.
