Eamonn Holmes, 63, had been marvelling at how age is no barrier to agility in the case of the Rolling Stones when he caught their performance at London's Hyde Park over the weekend.

While he was feeling inspired by 78-year-old rocker Sir Mick Jagger's shockingly youthful energy onstage after his own health woes due to Covid, he became distracted and was almost sent flying by Tom Cruise - the Top Gun star who is "still firing".Explaining the embarrassing episode in his exclusive column for Express.co.uk, he elaborated: "I was walking on air on the way out until some kid cut across my path."As I regained my balance I realised it was a whippersnapper by the name of Tom Cruise."Reminding the world that Tom turns 60 next week, he praised: "But he’s still firing.Still the Top Gun.

Enough said."Tom has been sighted at numerous London locations in recent weeks, including the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, which saw him interviewed on national television.It seems that both Tom and Eamonn have a shared enthusiasm for the Rolling Stones, hence their collision at the show last week.Eamonn told Express.co.uk: "As I continue to recover from a recent hospital stay, I can assure you Mick Jagger is better than any medicine."Marvelling at his on-stage exuberance, he declared: "If someone told me it was Harry Styles up there I would have believed them."Never out of breath yet recently recovered from heart surgery and Covid.

Amazing."The event marked Eamonn's first experience of the Rolling Stones at a live show.However, he was impressed by what he saw, exclaiming: "If this was them beyond their heyday then to see them in their prime must have been unbelievable."The broadcaster added that seeing an example of what rockers in their 70s could.
