Noel admitted: “That was so sweet to see your response to that. It was beautiful.”

Alison said: “It’s emotional stuff. It’s all about love and he’s got a lot of love in his heart.”

Noel said he wanted to bring “that love” because there’s a “lot of difficulties” in the world.

He said: “I just thought I’d be a tour of love across the nation.

“I really genuinely hope that even people who haven’t got a dog or a cat in their life will come and share in those stories of love.”

Noel went on to speak about suffering the loss of his beloved dog, Keira.

He revealed: “Remarkably last night, you won’t believe this, at midnight I was sitting in the wards with a puppy called Kiera named after my dog.

“A border terrier who I fixed last night and that’s the circle of life.”

He added to Dermot: “I was tearing up like you were earlier because I just thought that’s love coming back.
