Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No – it’s an opera singer. Londoners were amazed this morning to be greeted with the sight of opera superstar Lesley Garrett giving her most unique performance yet - 50 metres above the Tower of London.

The world’s first-ever aerial operatic performance was staged today to promote the launch of the new Sky Seats Extra scheme, which offers reduced price opera tickets to the public. Sky Arts, sponsors of English National Opera (ENO), will now provide 14,000 seats for as little as £20 a ticket (saving up to £46 per ticket). Sky Seats is the largest permanent discount ticket plan available for major opera productions in the UK with over 14,000 tickets available per season.

Lucky opera fans at today’s stunt were seated on specially-designed theatre seating, decked out in red velvet, and were hoisted up in the air by a 160-tonne crane, to experience the ultimate audio-visual treat as Lesley performed an aria from The Magic Flute, part of English National Opera’s up coming season.

Cake is currently working on a top secret project featuring a team of fighting dwarves. Can’t really say any more than that yet but all will be revealed in good time. Take a look at our very own Chris Willis, who received a four foot helping of PAIN over the weekend!

Happened across this blog this morning. Basically, ‘just for fun’, a graphic designer in Brazil has played mix and match with a collection of brands’ logos.

It made me smile on a Monday morning and I’m hoping it might have the same effect on you!

We’ve created this new rhythm game for Pro Plus giving those with the fastest fingers a chance to win VIP tickets to V Festival.

It has two levels where the player plays as a juggler and dancer.
