June, 84, donned a black leather jacket and teamed up with a bearded biker and a motorcycle to take part in the video for a new version of the 1980s chart-topper There's No One Quite Like Grandma.

The Absolutely Fabulous star said of her cameo role: "I have played a whole variety of parts in my career, but this was something I really enjoyed - and it is one up for Granny-power."

The song will be re-released later this month as the Innocent Big Knit charity single.

Members of the St Winifred's School Choir, who first sang the song as youngsters, reunited to record the track almost 30 years after it knocked John Lennon off the Christmas No 1 spot in 1980.

The Big Knit initiative also sees members of the public hand-knitting woollen hats for products made by food and drink company Innocent sold in Sainsbury's, which along with the single will raise money for charity.

The cash will go towards this year's target of raising more than £250,000 for Age Concern and Help The Aged.
