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.”

“Everybody was smiling and that’s beautiful.”

Betty Hughes added: “I loved his backside.”

Alice Woods, Dreamboys managing director, said: “The ladies loved it, it was an incredible day.

“The reaction was absolutely wild, we had a bit of underwear thrown and a lot of laughs.

“Max did us proud and the ladies absolutely loved him.”
