Michael Ball is absolutely precious! He seems so down to earth and genuine, I felt like we were watching a conversation rather than an interview. I saw him in Sweeney Todd and he was literally breath-taking, you're so lucky Carrie! x

Hi Carrie, thank you very much for sharing your talking with Michael Ball. Last sunday he played "A man without love" by Engelbert released in 1968 in his Radio Show on BBC 2.. Simply a very good song, my generation. He is an amazing guy. He loves all the melodies which comes from the bottom of the heart.. He just knows what sounds great.

And then a few years later she was performing with him again in Les Mis, again! This video came up on my recommendations (I may have been binging a lot of Carrie videos during lockdown) and it was so nice to see it again. The Cameron Blakely story with the cat still makes me cry with laughter!!
