Award-winning and chart-topping man of the moment Sam Smith took a break from his world arena tour last night with an intimate gig for a few hundred lucky fans in London.

The Stay With Me singer treated the audience to an hour-long set for his Radio 2 in Concert show in the intimate BBC Radio Theatre.

He told the crowd: "I actually feel nervous, (I've) been doing arenas in the US, I haven't done a room this size for a while. It's a good problem to have, I know!"

He didn't sound it though - the 23-year-old belted out all the well-known hits from his hugely successful debut album Lonely Hour, including Stay With Me, Money On My Mind, Like I Can, I'm Not the Only One, and his latest single, Lay Me Down.

Any fears that his huge vocal range may have been affected by his recent vocal cord surgery were swiftly put to bed.

Fame and fortune could have easily gone to his head but his open and easy manner with the crowd showcased the humble charm behind his success.

With just one album under his belt, he had just enough material to fill the slot but he delighted fans with news that this would be "the last time I play this album on its own in the UK before I go off and write my second album".

And those betting on him singing the latest Bond theme tune? It's not looking good.

"That's not me. That's definitely not me," he told BBC Radio 2's Jo Whiley yesterday.
