A patriotic poppy seller has transformed his mobility scooter into a TANK ahead of Remembrance Sunday - complete with tracks, a gun and mini rockets.

Eddie Wadsworth, 85, spent "many hours" creating his own version of an armoured vehicle out of disused cardboard boxes and other recycled materials.

The grandfather-of-two has even added military music to the tank as he drives around his home town raising funds for the Royal British Legion.

Eddie also painted the wooden-framed vehicle in camouflage green and brown and it comes complete with a turret and working doors, costing just £7 in total to make.

This video was filmed 6th November 2019.
