Amateur tape of Gary Barlow found
A lost video tape showing Gary Barlow singing in a talent contest when he was 15 years old has been discovered in a fan's attic.

The Take That star is shown rehearsing for the competition on BBC show Pebble Mill, on which he eventually came runner-up.

Fan Claire Jarvis came across the tape, believed to be one of two in existence, when she moved from her house in Cornwall.

Jarvis explained to The Sun: "There are only two of these tapes in existence, and Gary was given the other one.

"A school friend of Gary's later worked with my dad and gave it to him knowing I was such a fan of the group. It's quite funny when you think how successful he became."
