I think it’s lovely that Scott has found another lovely companion. I think Barbara would be pleased that he’s not on his own. The cruelty of dementia means he’d lost Barbara long before she died. Nice to see a postive blossom out of a difficult time.

My mother passed of dementia last year , was fluent in 7 languages, then at the end couldn’t speak but still recognised us it’s the long goodbye I salute these two wish Scott & Tanya all the best for their future,
Have a lovely life Scott and Tanya ❤
Many congratulations to new members of this morning. My granddad had dementia he passed from 92 . Babs will always be queen. ❤x
I’m so very happy for you Scott, also for your lovely lady. She has indeed found a diamond in the lottery of life. You battled and battled for so long and have endured so much sadness. You deserve every happiness my dear man. I hope you remain in your more public life as you have inspired so many with regard to Alzheimer’s. Me included. From the bottom of my heart I wish you both a long and happy life together.
My Nan died of this evil dementia and we need to fight this for future
Scott is an amazing man wish him every happiness so happy for him ❤
Will start watching good morning again after years and years good luck to Ben & Cat
Lost my dad at 57 to dementia a cruel evil disease 😢 so happy to see Scott happy again ❤

Barbara would be so happy she wouldn’t want him to be on his own. She was never a selfish lady.
Watching my Mother go through all the stages of Alzheimer's was horrific, don't think i will ever get over it. 😢

My son is a research scientist, and after seeing his yaya with this illness wanted to be involved with gene therapy, which could help this dreadful disease, God bless Scott & Tanya ,
My husband had it, and I looked after him on my own for four years, but research usually involves animal experiments , therefore I don't contribute to that..unfortunately will we all go from something.
Never judge when you don't know the story behind it.
I recognise his girlfriend she is an actreess i hope they will be very happy together ❤️

Sueing... who is sueing why is anyone sueing
Is he related to Micky Flanagan ?
My dad died from the illness
Why does he feel the need to tell everyone he has a new partner?.... 🤔 Congratulations, but I'm more interested in the Dementia charity.

He didn’t feel the need he was invited on the program to highlight the charity & the relationship is relevant to show he’s happy. It’s not that deep
Deserved Scott……😘
Just wish someone would tell Scott how silly his hair looks: such a nice-looking guy but the long hair doesn’t suit him. Glad he’s found new love.
Such a lovely couple…I’m thrilled for them and I’m sure Barbara is too. I lost my wonderful Mum to dementia…such a cruel disease 🥹
