..So, something a little bit more uplifting......wondering what our Tom’s been up to...I’m thinking that he might do a Harry and Meghan and go off to live the Hollywood life in LA....


Captain Sir Tom Moore signs film deal - and wants Michael Caine or Anthony Hopkins to play him...

He jokes: "I don't know of any 100-year-old actors but I'm sure Michael Caine or Anthony Hopkins could do a wonderful job."

Captain Sir Tom Moore will have a film made about his life, following a fierce bidding war over rights to his story.

The World War II veteran, who raised £38.9m for the NHS by walking laps of his garden, has also broken two Guinness World Records, scored a Number One single and been knighted by the Queen.

The centenarian joked: "I don't know of any 100-year-old actors but I'm sure Michael Caine or Anthony Hopkins could do a wonderful job if they were prepared to age up!"

Earlier this month, on the publication of his autobiography and the launch of his charity foundation, he said he would love David Beckham to play him due to his "charm".

Described as "uplifting" and "life-affirming", the biopic is being fast-tracked and will be shot next year.

It will focus on the former British Army captain's relationship with his family, and how he inspired them after moving into their home following the death of his wife.


The movie will also draw on his military career and look at the way personal grief and the horrors of war helped him develop a determination that has shaped his life.

Has his life story with Piers been shown yet, I saw a trailer where he said Boris rang on his birthday and he was told to ring back, TiBB would be proud

Surely he has been vaccinated though .. this won’t go down well if it all goes pear shaped ...

I expected him to be vaccinated first as a thank you and a PR exercise.

I would have also done a Private Ryan and somehow kept him completely protected so this couldn’t happen in the first place

The media will have a field day now whichever way it goes for the poor guy

Even if he has been vaccinated he could still catch it, and in some cases people will still die, just not in the numbers we see now, same as people who have had the flu jab, it’s not a cure all

Pull through Capt Tom, not in ICU is good at least

if you are very frail, you won't be able to get the vaccine, particularly if you are getting other medication. It also sounds like he caught it in hospital

Just read that, seems an odd decision for his family to take in all honesty

BA gave them a free flight, I suppose he felt he had to take it at his age..very sad
