Russell Watson has admitted that he wants to get rid of broadcaster and journalist David Mellor by putting him in a time capsule.

The 40-year-old classical singer was horrified when Mellor criticised his music and personality - and has now joked about getting his revenge.

"I think I'd be inclined to put a certain person in there. David Mellor would be my first choice, he's not been very pleasant to me," Russell told Parkinson.

"He's not wrote about me for a while. In a very roundabout way he basically said that he hated my music and hated me even more."

Parkinson airs at 10.25pm tonight on ITV1.
