Ozzy Osbourne is determined to visit the Black Sabbath bench in his home city of Birmingham "very soon", he says.

In a video interview with wife Sharon, the heavy metal star says he will come to see the bench on Broad Street, even "if I have to crawl there".

Osbourne, 75, announced he had Parkinson's disease in 2020, before playing live at the closing ceremony of Birmingham's Commonwealth Games in 2022. He retired from touring last year.

Sharon posted the exclusive interview as a "thank you" gift to Mike Olley, general manager of Westside BID, the man behind the creation and upkeep of the now world-famous bench.

Ozzy said he would visit the bench when he goes to see the bull named after him in New Street railway station, which was the star of the Games' opening ceremony.
