As days go, Gez Ossai has just had a cracker on a rare break from his job as a care home manager – not only having lunch with Amarillo star Tony Christie, but singing with him too.
Gez joined Tony as he recorded his charity cover of Andrew Gold’s 1978 hit Thank You For Being A Friend for Music for Dementia.
The 80-year-old musician has been diagnosed with the condition, and his fundraising single, out on July 2, will feature carers representing Britain’s army of unsung heroes.
