Travis singer 'lucky to be alive'

Travis frontman Fran Healy considers himself lucky to be alive after a convoy he was meant to join was ambushed by militants in Sudan last week.

The singer and his fiancee Nora had planned to accompany the Save The Children aid convoy to the war-torn Darfur region, during a fact-finding mission to the poverty-stricken country - but the pair changed their mind after hearing warnings about the area.
