Michael Barrymore took a trip down memory lane as he went for a stroll around his childhood neighbourhood of Bermondsey, London in a new vlog.

The comedian, 72, gave fans an update on his day-to-day life after he recently became a TikTok sensation, boasting over 3.5million followers. 

In the new video, Michael went for a walk around Bermondsey and visited some of his childhood haunts including the local Wimpy. 

It wasn’t long before the TV star was spotted by some fans as two women stopped him for selfies while he was on the Central Line.

One told him she gets the Central Line everyday and was hoping she’d eventually spot him. 

Elsewhere in the video, he took his pet whippet for a walk and showed fans his shopping trip to Lidl.

The new video comes shortly after Michael revealed his plans to move to Spain ‘to change his life for the better’ in a TikTok video.

He put his London home on the market before heading to Spain, according to reports in July.

However, it appears the comedian is still spending plenty of time on home turf as his recent TikTok videos all appear to be in the UK.    

Michael was previously one of the UK’s top stars but his decades long career ended after the death of Stuart Lubbock in 2001 following a party at his EsSєx home.

On his recent personal TikTok account Michael тιтled a video with his puppy ‘Our new life in Spain’. 

A second video posted was called ‘Week 1 in Barcelona’ and Barrymore tells the cameras: ‘I said I was homesick but I realise now I was just fearful. 

‘What I really want is for our new life to work out. I’ve got into a bit of a routine now which is helping me to settle, I take Lara (his dog) for a walk to the beach every morning and then we find somewhere to have something to eat, a coffee or go for a walk around the town. 

Captioning his post, he wrote: ‘Never be afraid to change your life for the better #michaelbarrymore #movingabroad’.

Explaining why he is deciding to move ship, Michael said: ‘Hey guys, yes I am moving to Barcelona. 

‘I’m 72 now and I realise that quality of life is more important to me than anything, so I’m going to Spain.

‘I love the place. It’s not the Spain that I grew up with, there’s all the package resorts that we all know, this is the mainland Spain, It’s amazing.

‘The culture there and the people and just the art and everything. I started looking around Girona and the Catalonia area for houses back in March.

‘I’ve flown out a couple of times already to look for places and see what I like. Once I decide which villa I like, I probably maybe around Lloret de Mar, of course I’m gonna take Dave with me and of course I’m going to take you guys with me.

‘So don’t worry, I’m going to vlog everything and you’re going to join me all the way through this entire story.

‘Until I find the villa of my dreams, I’m going to find out as much as I can about it, download Duolingo, learn the language. I can’t wait.’

The move to Spain comes more than 20 years after a young man was found ᴅᴇᴀᴅ in his swimming pool following a house party and Michael practically disappeared from public life.

The TV presenter lost his job at ITV shortly afterwards in 2003, and he was rarely seen again until he appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in January 2006 – managing to finish in second place.

A series of career revival attempts followed but they were often overshadowed by the ongoing investigation into the death of Stuart Lubbock.

Between that year and 2019, Barrymore and others were arrested and questioned on multiple occasions.

No charges were ever filed and the star ultimately sued EsSєx Police for wrongful arrest, although he dropped his compensation claim of £2.4m after a court ruled he was due ‘nominal’ damages.

But the TV personality has been taking his career back into his own hands by building a loyal fan base on the social media app TikTok.

He is no stranger to the stage, having performed sell-out shows before his career collapsed in 2001 when Lubbock, 31, was found ᴅᴇᴀᴅ in the swimming pool of his EsSєx mansion after the star hosted a late-night party.

He has always denied any knowledge of what happened. 

The performer has now amᴀssed 3.1 million followers on the social media platform, where his bio reads: ‘This is a very happy place to be…’

Barrymore posts multiple videos per day and his followers often leave him messages of love and support.

Michael has become Gen Z’s unlikely hero by reinventing himself as a TikTok star two decades after the pool tragedy halted his career 

But online he’s not afraid to come out of his shell and has posted several humorous clips 

‘You really are living your best life right now and clearly loving it,’ wrote one admirer under his videos, ‘So happy for you.’

Another said: ‘You’ll always be the funniest man… we love you mister Barrymore, I wish you all the happiness in the world.’

Barrymore repeatedly shares old clips from his television shows Kids Say The Funniest Things and Strike It Rich, which aired on ITV between 1998 and 2000 and from 1996 to 1999 respectively.

He has also expressed his love of the video battle royale game Fortnite , beloved by the Gen Z crowd.
