Couple in their nineties have whole pub in tears with magical moment on dancefloor

This is the magical moment a city centre bar erupted into applause as a couple celebrating 70 years of marriage took over the dancefloor.

Pubgoers were in tears at Ruby Blues on Great Charlotte Street in Liverpool city centre on Saturday as Ina, 92, and Norman Hill, 94, danced to Andy Williams' The Impossible Dream, performed in the pub by George Gallagher. The couple, from Netherton, met at The Grafton on West Derby Road back in 1950 and have travelled the world together as professional ballroom dancers - and it showed in their stunning performance.

They were out celebrating with their family this weekend, ahead of their 70th wedding anniversary on Tuesday, when they took to the dancefloor of the city centre bar for the impromptu performance. Granddaughter Rebecca Hill, 23, said there wasn't a dry eye in the room during the dance.
