Malcolm’s son in law, Andrew Wileman, said: “Four very helpful people in the audience worked on him for about 15 minutes because he had lost consciousness. Those four people just disappeared in the aftermath, it was two ladies and two gentlemen.

"Malcolm’s wife, Jacky, wants to find the people that helped him and kept him alive, just to say thank you.”

‘It looks like he is going to be fine’

Malcolm and his wife Jacky came to Sheffield for a weekend break as a delayed 80th birthday present.

Andrew said that Malcolm is now in a critical but stable condition and added: “It looks like he is going to be fine.”
