Operatunity WinnersTuesday 28 October 2003
Denise Leigh (left) and Jane Gilchrist with Sheila McClennon
Last year two working mums became opera divas in just a few months after they beat thousands of hopefuls to become joint winners of the Channel 4 television series, Operatunity.

In March, Denise Leigh and Jane Gilchrist shared the role of Gilda in Verdi's Rigoletto at the Coliseum and are now working together on an album of arias.
Denise and Jane join Sheila to talk about life after Operatunity, and sing live in the studio.
