CCTV footage has been released by police of a 77-year-old man who was hit by a car and carried along on its bonnet.

The man, from Gorton, was injured after challenging the driver who had driven into his car outside his home.

As he asked the driver to stop, the car reversed into a second parked car before it was driven at him.

He was then left hanging on the bonnet as the car drove off, at about 16:10 on Saturday 10 March.

The victim fell to the road as the car continued towards Sunnybrow Road, Greater Manchester Police said.

He was taken to hospital and treated for his injuries.

Police are appealing for anyone with information to contact them.

The final two episodes of Peter Kay's Car Share are to be broadcast on BBC One in May, it's been confirmed.

Fans of the sitcom will finally see what happens between his character John and Kayleigh, played by Sian Gibson.

The episodes - which have already been filmed - will come a year after Kay said the show was coming to an end following its second series.

There will be an unscripted episode before the finale, which will reveal if John and Kayleigh have a happy ending.

A charity screening of the two episodes is taking place in Blackpool next month before the rest of the UK gets to watch them, a tweet from Peter Kay's account announced on Thursday.

It was the first tweet from the account since Kay said in December that he was cancelling his comeback tour.
