Sir Tom Jones 'lies upside down' to reduce pain in unusual pre-show ritual

Sir Tom Jones has an unusual way of beating his pain - lying upside down.

The 82-year-old singer is back for another series of The Voice UK alongside fellow judges Olly Murs, Anne-Marie and will.i.am, and he has revealed just how he keeps his pain at a minimum as he gets ready for the show. Tom was chatting at ITV's Autumn entertainment schedule launch earlier this week, where he explained how he combats his pain.

Tom was forced to deny earlier this year that he had cancelled a show because he collapsed, instead confirming it was to do with a diagnosis of viral laryngitis. He now relies on a walking stick, but insists he's doing really well.
