It was a very Chiswick affair on Pop Idol last night. The show that has gripped the nation over the last few weeks finished with our very own Ant and Dec presenting the title to ex-ArtsEd student Will Young.

Will's pop career will now be launched with the release of his new single "Ever Green". We are unable to confirm a rumour that it was originally entitled Turnham Green. He looks set to join the ranks of other pop stars with antecedents in Chiswick such as Pete Townshend, Roger Entwhistle, Kim Wilde and that bald bloke who used to be the drummer in Genesis.
