Opera legend Pavarotti 'worsens'
Opera star Luciano Pavarotti's health has worsened and he is in a "very serious" condition, Italian media say.Pavarotti, 71, has been suffering from pancreatic cancer and was released from hospital on 25 August after a series of tests were carried out.
He is now being treated at home in the northern city of Modena surrounded by family and friends.
Pavarotti had surgery for the cancer in July 2006 in New York and has not made any public appearances since then.
Not surprising but still upsetting.

I feel very sorry for his daughter Alice who isn't yet five; still, what a wonderful legacy of recorded beauty.
