Auschwitz survivor Ron Jones, who turned 100 this year, admits he has become "a bit of a celebrity" after more than three decades as a poppy seller.
The former soldier, who spent two and a half years in the Nazi concentration camp before being forced on a 'death march' across Europe, has been collecting for the Poppy Appeal since 1981.
"I've been selling poppies for about 30 years... every year for a fortnight, practically every day," he said.
