He trained in London and Toronto before making his stage debut in London’s West End as the Telegraph Boy in Me and My Girl with Emma Thompson and Robert Lindsey. He then went to the Victoria Palace in Charlie Girl with Cyd Chariss and Paul Nicholas.

Lyn said it would be fun for everyone, with Peter showing all the moves in an hour of dance fitness in the main hall at Worthing Leisure Centre on Tuesday, September 19, from 5pm to 6pm.

No experience is necessary. Tickets are £7 via www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/dance-fitness-for-st-barnabas-tickets-708458708067 and 100 per cent of the ticket price will go to St Barnabas House hospice.

Lyn said: "My fundraising is going extremely well. My daughter Jodie has donated £100 and £50 Amazon vouchers for a free prize draw, with a draw ticket for everyone who books ahead."

Other regulars from the Thursday morning dance fitness class will be taking part, helping to showcase Peter’s routines and to create a great atmosphere so newcomers can see what fun they have.

Lyn has supported St Barnabas House for many years and is a familiar face at hospice events. She and Jodie will be walking the South Downs in memory of Lyn's mum.
