Residents of a care home were delighted when a member of the Dreamboys male stripper group put on a show for them.
Max Hunter, who was a manager at a retirement village before he became a male stripper, put on a performance at Astune Rise care home in Eston, Middlesbrough.
Home manager Caroline Bowstead said: “We were offered a Dreamboy to come and visit.
“I spoke to the gang here and the ladies said a resounding ‘yes please’.
“I’ve never seen a reaction like it at any event we’ve done, and there’s been a lot of them at Astune Rise.
“The laughter, the giggles, the tears – they’ve loved every minute of it.
Mr Hunter, who used to work with older people in St Helens, Merseyside, said: “It’s been a pleasure to join the residents here.
“I used to run entertainment at retirement villages so it’s an absolute privilege to be back in a care home again putting a smile on residents’ faces.”
