Grandfather Martin Kenyon Who Charmed With Vaccine Tale Puts Piers Morgan In His Place
He was one of the first people in the world to get a coronavirus vaccine, then he charmed everyone with his tale of getting it. Now 91-year-old Martin Kenyon has put UK presenter Piers Morgan in his place.

The quick response triggered peals of laughter from Morgan, his co-presenter Susanna Reid and the other interviewees.
“He’s laughing at his own jokes now,” Kenyon added.
