The late Paul O'Grady sent a heartwarming tribute to the family of a mum-of-ten who he called the "one and only Lily Savage".
Today, tributes were paid to comedian and TV personality Paul O'Grady who died aged 67. Paul first rose to prominence as his drag queen persona Lily Savage in the 1980s and 1990s, before going on to host a string of television programmes.
But back in 1994, Paul O'Grady, from Birkenhead, met the "real" Lily Savage - a great-grandmother living in Port Sunlight. BBC researcher Janet McKenna tracked down the 81-year-old down while working on new BBC2 series Life Swap, but the episode is said to have not aired.
