Vandals have defaced a mural of entertainer Paul O'Grady created in the days following his death. It has been covered in graffiti.
It appeared on the Fallowfield Loop in Manchester after news broke of the star's death last Tuesday night. It features O'Grady's portrait and a dog, with the words 'For Paul'.
The artwork was created by Manchester Murals. They described it as a way of recognising the ‘well-grounded entertainment machine that spanned generations’, reports the M.E.N.
