Rick Astley is back
"Singer Rick Astley is set to make make a comeback with a one-off tour.
Astley will take to the stage with a host of stars for one week only, 20 years after scoring a number one hit around the world.
He said: "I was offered a really nice trip to Japan to do some of my 80s hits ... and to my surprise I kind of enjoyed it.
"I've dome some little gigs where I've done swing numbers, but in terms of singing for thousands of people, it's still a bit of a buzz."
Astley was a huge hit in the UK in the eighties when he shot to Number One with debut single Never Gonna Give You Up.
After a string of hits, he narrowly missed the spot with a Christmas cover of the classic When I Fall In Love."
