Defaced mural of Paul O’Grady painted over with touching tribute

The mural, which was originally created by artist Chris Moore, aka Manchester Murals, appeared under the Kingsway bridge on the Fallowfield Loop earlier this week after the star and television personality died 'unexpectedly but peacefully' at the age of 67.
