Iglesias and Valance duet would do it for fans

CHART sex symbols Holly Valance and Enrique Iglesias are the pop pairing most people would like to see perform duet together, according to a new poll.

Aussie beauty Valance and Spanish heart-throb Iglesias were voted the nation’s number one dream duo.

More than a third of the 22,000 people surveyed wanted them to make a joint bid for chart glory in 2003.

Valance could follow in the footsteps of fellow ex-Neighbours stars Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan, who topped the charts in 1988 with their duet Especially For You.

Arch-enemies Robbie Williams and Liam Gallagher also proved to be a popular, if unlikely, choice.

The pair have a history of trading insults and Liam’s engagement to Robbie’s ex, Nicole Appleton, hasn’t helped their relationship.

But one quarter of music fans want them to bury their differences and make a record together.

Elsewhere in the poll, opera star Luciano Pavarotti and teenage soprano Charlotte Church proved a popular choice.

Famous duos from yesteryear also registered highly, with country legends Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers in second place. The pair had a top ten record in 1983 with Islands In The Stream.

And Cockney duo Chas and Dave made it to fifth place with music fans apparently keen to see them follow up hits like Rabbit and Snooker Loopy.

The survey was commissioned by fabric conditioner company Comfort. The firm is hoping the animated characters from its adverts, Darren and Lisa, could score a chart success of their own.

They are considering releasing a Darren and Lisa cover version of Especially For You in the New Year after the adverts proved a hit with the public.
