This heart warming video shows the moment a pensioner performed an impromptu duet of Wonderful World with a busker – and left the crowd in tears.

Enid Bellamy, 88, stopped to perform with Andy Marshall when she saw him singing in a busy city centre.

Passers by were shocked when Enid belted out a pitch-perfect version of Louis Armstrong’s 1960s classic.

Some people in the crowd at Truro, Cornwall, were filmed reduced to tears as Enid sang: “I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do. They’re really saying – I love you.”

The whole performance was caught on film by Mia Fannin, a 19-year-old massage therapist from Truro.

She said: “The performance was amazing, it was just one of those moments where I just had to stay.

“I stuck around for nearly half an hour, the atmosphere was amazing – I feel that my video really does prove that even our elders can still be young at heart.

“I am so lucky I went into town that day, she gave me goose bumps – such a lovely, kind, friendly lady.
