A Scottish singer who had a heart attack during a live streamed show managed to carry on with the performance after a short break.
Alan Mowatt, 61, stayed true to saying 'the show must go on' when he resumed singing in the coronavirus lockdown show on July 3.
The entertainer from Arbroath, Angus was performing with his wife Val, in a live streamed show that aimed to raise money for the NHS.
The Facebook Live shows the moment Alan and Val were singing Moon River when Alan suddenly clutches his chest and walks of camera.
After a couple of minutes, Alan returns to the live stream and starts singing the line 'How lucky can one guy be?' from Dean Martin's hit song Ain't that a Kick in the Head.
Val told the Daily Record: "I knew something was wrong and even made a joke about him passing out on me, but after a couple of minutes he said he was fine to carry on.
"We called NHS 24 after the show and they immediately thought he'd had a heart attack. NHS Tayside certainly came up trumps, which he joked was actually a bit ironic since we've been singing to raise money for the NHS during the pandemic.
"It's been very stressful and we are waiting to find out the outcome of lots more tests, but it has meant so much to see all the support for Alan and that has really helped us."
Val told LADbible that Alan remains in Ninewells Hospital and will eventually be transferred to Edinburgh for triple bypass surgery.
"While we are all shocked by what has happened Alan is comfortable and in good spirits and is receiving the most wonderful care from all of the NHS staff who are caring for him for which we are all just so grateful and thankful," said Val.
The couple have been performing weekly as part of efforts led by fellow entertainer Danny Laverty.
The performances have raised thousands of pounds for hospitals in Tayside.
