This Morning viewers found themselves being taken aback by Tony Christie as he appeared on the show. The singer joined hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield live on the famous sofa on Tuesday (April 25) and fans were quick to flock to social media to admit their 'soft spot' for the star.
Tony gave up his birthday to join the pair for a chat on the ITV daytime show in which he opened up about his dementia diagnosis. The '(Is This The Way To) Amarillo' singer shared how he went for a check-up at the doctor's after he began struggling with one of his hobbies. "One of my big things, for donkey's years, 50 years [has been] crosswords," he shared.
"Cryptic crosswords, that was my big hobby. Then suddenly I'm getting problems with doing it and I said to my wife 'What's wrong are they making it more difficult for me or is it me?' so she said 'Let's go and see a specialist'.
