High fliers in Spitfire salute

by Keith Hamilton

This is Hampshire - February 2nd 2006

Ronan pictured with Boris Becker and Tim JefferiesIt was a paparazzi paradise! Glitz and glamour was everywhere as the beautiful people gathered for an ultra-exclusive celebration of a Southampton icon.

Pop music superstar, Ronan Keating together with former tennis champion and darling of the tabloids, Boris Becker mingled with the gorgeous Goodwood glitterati who had come together to salute the world- famous Spitfire aircraft, born and bred in Southampton 70 years ago.

Scores of journalists and photographers from upmarket style and fashion magazines across continental Europe had flown in especially to record the event for their glossy pages.

Besides the former Boyzone singer and the flamboyant Wimbledon champion another guest at the Spitfire anniversary was millionaire art gallery owner, Tim Jefferies.

Even the venue, the 12,000 acres of rolling countryside that surrounds the aristocratic home of Lord March, was carefully chosen for this spectacularly select event sponsored by an international company of watchmakers specialising in timepieces worn on the wrists of the rich and famous.

Besides marking the aviation milestone the two-day event was also staged to launch the latest range of the company's watches that have been named after the Spitfire.

Although the admiring crowd included those who were used to being centre stage in public it was without doubt the Spitfire that was the star of this particular show.

Its sleek, graceful shape was unmistakable and Ronan Keating was one of the first to clamber into the cockpit to get a feel of the controls.

Father and son

"What an amazing aircraft," said the chart topper, who flies helicopters in his spare time. "It is such an experience to sit here in the cockpit."

While sitting in the aircraft Ronan was introduced to 85-year-old Dr Gordon Mitchell, the son of the Spitfire's designer, RJ Mitchell.

"It's a real honour to meet you," Ronan told Dr Mitchell. "Your father designed one of the greatest aircraft in history."

Ronan's acting classes

MSN Entertainment - January 30th 2006

Ronan Keating is still hoping to launch a movie career, despite his first movie failing to ever get off the ground.

"I was all set to start a film with Vinnie Jones and Anna Friel, but it's been put back now, so I took the opportunity to learn how to act and I'm loving it," Keating told Sky News. "I hope you can see all the work up there on screen very soon."

Ronan recently ruled out reuniting with his former pop band Boyzone for a tour.
