A male stripper caused a stir at a Middlesbrough care home this week, when he replaced the residents' usual "knit and natter" session with a striptease.

Max Hunter was a care home manager before he became a stripper and decided to offer the elderly residents a show.

"I spoke to the gang here and the ladies said a resounding 'yes please'," said Astune Rise care home's manager Caroline Bowstead.

"I've never seen a reaction like it at any event we've done."

A video of the event shows Mr Hunter gyrating with the home's residents and stripping off his uniform down to his underwear.

The residents twirled pants and props as Mr Hunter danced in the living room of the care home, which was decked out in red shimmer curtains.

...

"Everybody was smiling and that's beautiful."

"I loved his backside," added resident Betty Hughes.

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

But "/s"? On a UK instance? Shame on you.
