Tom Moore ‘flirts’ with Amanda Holden over FaceTime after WW2 hero raises over £20m for NHS
CAPTAIN Tom Moore had a cheeky exchange with Amanda Holden as he appeared on Heart radio today.
The war hero, who has raised over £20m for the NHS, FaceTimed into the studio this morning – and was full of praise for the Britain’s Got Talent judge.
“You’re such a charming picture this morning,” he told her – prompting Amanda to joke “flirty!”
After telling Amanda and co-host Jamie Theakston “I'm enjoying speaking to you, you're both smiling people”, Captain Moore told Amanda: “And if you’re looking like Amanda – wow!”
When Amanda promised to meet up with him after lockdown was lifted, Captain Moore told her to "keeping on looking how you're looking, wow!"
The 99-year-old was on the show to talk about his incredible achievement – raising over £20m for the NHS by walking laps of his garden.

After 500,000 people signed a petition calling for the veteran to be knighted – also backed by Peter Andre and David Beckham – prime minister Boris Johnson said he “will certainly be looking at ways to recognise Tom for his heroic efforts".
The war hero originally set out to raise £1,000 through his JustGiving page by walking 100 laps.
While appearing on This Morning earlier this week, he insisted he’s “no superstar” – but during his six-minute interview on the show, generous viewers donated £70k to charity.
