It's been a memorable year already for JLGB patron, Sir Jack Petchey, the East End boy who joined the Navy, bought a second-hand car business and, through various business ventures, became a multi-millionaire.

His charity work particularly in support of youth was recognised with a knighthood in the New Years Honours in January.

Then, this month, the 90-year-old knight married his long-term partner, the Leeds-born sculptress Frances Segelman, famed for her celebrity and royal busts.

I'm told their nuptials were celebrated with a spirited Hava Nagila and some numbers from Fiddler on the Roof.
