Good Morning Britain viewers left in floods of tears during Vicky McClure's Our Dementia Choir performance

Good Morning Britain viewers were left in tears on Tuesday following a performance by Our Dementia Choir. The group feature in a documentary alongside Nottingham-born actor Vicky McClure about the power of music being able to help those living with the disease.

McClure, best known for her role as Detective Inspector Kate Fleming on Line of Duty, launched BBC series Our Dementia Choir after caring for her other grandmother, Iris, who died in 2015. Though she slowly watched her grandmother deteriorate over years of battling the disease, McClure never forgot how music helped Iris.

Vicky appeared on GMB to discuss the third series of her documentary, with all episodes now available to stream on BBC iPlayer. The first two seasons saw the actor set out to discover the extent of music's power to combat dementia by forming a choir of people living with the condition in Nottingham.
