This guy should saluted, over 9 million raised now and hopefully into the 10's night, a hero for all generations
If he does not get a knighthood there is something wrong, surely the pride of Britain has found one of its winners

I agree John, it brings a tear of joy to my eyes.
I put £20 pound in tonight.
Apparently his birthday is in 2 weeks time on Thursday 30th April and i heard something that people want others to sing happy birthday to him on that day instead of clapping for the carers, I will probably do both but i will be singing happy birthday to him first and hope everyone else will join me!

Wow...it was still at just over 5mill last I looked earlier today.
Go, Captain Tom! What a sensational achievement, bless his heart - an absolute rare gem of a man.

Welcome back, Sam. A great story in these times of worry and worse, thank you kind sir.
Over 29 million £ now. What a fantastic man he is, and a number 1 single in the charts too. What a legacy, not only in his military career, but now, with all this.
I salute you Captain Tom.

I think you're right, and no one deserves it more than he does tbh. The donations flooded in from all over the world, so people have really taken him to their hearts.

Tom has raised almost £12 million now and Clap For Tom is Trending on Twitter!!
On the 30th of April (which is Tom's) 100th birthday lets all clap at 8pm!!
So lets all give it laldy for Tom!!
Bless him, what a trooper he is!
I watched him this morning live, what a legend - I expect a Knighthood will be a certainty now.

That story was so nice, what a lovely little boy.
