The chart-topper was in Leigh to tell Hollie Parr, partner Oliver Bond and son Joel that they were receiving a huge early Christmas gift courtesy of Virgin Media O2 reaching more than one million customers of its Volt service.
The beloved TV personality found himself in the Right Place Right Time to bring joy to NHS worker Hollie and her young family.
Alongside a Virgin Media O2 engineer, the Dance with Me Tonight-hitmaker stunned Oliver when he knocked on their door unannounced and handed over a huge haul of tech goodies, including a new TV, gaming consoles and a tablet.

While Hollie was working at her local A&E during Olly’s visit and was unable to meet him in person, the presenter surprised her with a video call during a shift break.
Hollie, who has worked for the NHS for five and half years is pregnant with the couple’s first child together, a girl, which they’re expecting next year.
Hollie said: “It was such a shock to see Olly in my house. We live on a quiet road and have only recently moved in so definitely weren’t expecting a celebrity to knock on the door!
"We’re all huge fans of tech in the family, whether that’s for online gaming or sitting down to stream a movie together, so this bundle is hugely welcome.

Olly said: “I couldn’t have been happier that the millionth customer, Hollie, was a key worker. It was a real privilege spending time in her home and with her family, especially knowing how much the giveaway will help them stay connected with their loved ones.
