Lewis returns to UK 50 years after tour shambles

Rock legend Jerry Lee Lewis is to return to the UK 50 years after his ill-fated 1958 tour was scrapped following revelations about his private life.

The singer came to Britain in May 1958, aged 22, to play a series of live dates across the country - but the roadshow was cancelled after just three concerts when it emerged that Lewis' third wife, Myra Gale Brown, was his first cousin once removed - and was just 13 years old.
