92-year-old man in self-isolation becomes viral star after singing online

A self-isolating great-grandad has become an internet sensation after videos of him singing wartime classics to cheer people up during the coronavirus outbreak went viral.

Arthur Cook, 92, is known in his local community as "the singing man" as he regularly serenades shoppers while out and about in Northfield, Birmingham.

But since being confined to his home due to the COVID-19 pandemic he and his daughter Carol-Ann Smith, 58, came up with a way to keep his fans entertained.
