Veteran tap dancer Lionel Blair will be the star attraction at next month's Full of Life fair for older people.

The former team captain of the 1980s hit show Give Us a Clue will hold a question and answer session at this year’s event.

Now in its fifth year, Richmond Council runs the fair to mark Older People’s Day on October 1.

Mr Blair said: “I am absolutely delighted to be attending the Full of Life fair. It’s a great opportunity for people to get together and celebrate older residents.

“Loneliness and isolation among older people is something we must all work hard to overcome, young and old.”

The fair will be held at Harlequins Rugby Club between 10am and 4pm on October 1.
