A group of Chelsea pensioners whose average age is 79 could be an unlikely chart success after landing a record deal.
The retired military men will be shifting their battleground to the album chart when the seven-strong group releases its debut in November.
Between them they have clocked up more than 20 medals for their service careers, plus one MBE, and have seen service in the Second World War, Palestine and Northern Ireland.
Now the team behind The Soldiers - who saw top five success last year - is taking the veterans on a new campaign as they tackle the big guns of the music business.
Their album, Men In Scarlet, even features a performance with another mature performer Janey Cutler - the 81-year-old Britain's Got Talent finalist.
The pensioners - noted for their distinctive scarlet coats and tricorne hats - all live in the Royal Hospital in Chelsea.
