Residents at a care home in North Norfolk have burst into song to cheer on the Three Lions advance to the Euro finals.
Woodspring House Care Home, in Fakenham, posted a video cheering England on before the team took the Netherlands on in yesterday's semi-finals.
In the video, Chloe Lawlor, a care assistant at Woodspring House, is seen singing along to Leon Mallet's 'Let's Be Avin You', while residents and staff join in, waving the St George's Cross flag.
Leon Mallet rose to fame after his version of the song 'East Anglian Boy' went viral.
Lisa Black, Woodspring House's manager, said: "Music is really important when it comes to dementia, so we were singing all sorts of songs before the game.
"And then Chloe started singing Mr Mallet's song, and it was just brilliant."
Mr Mallet also shared the video to his Facebook page
"Nothing positive is ever said about dementia, so seeing something like this I think is really wonderful," said Ms Black.
Following the football team's 2-1 win, Woodspring House is already preparing to watch England take on Spain in the final on Sunday.
"We're celebrating everything English. We'll start with an English tea for breakfast, then we'll have a traditional roast beef for dinner," she said.
