Meet the Nuneaton Grinch

Available for over a year

Matt Duynstee, a retired police officer, started his role as the Nuneaton Grinch after becoming a grandad, as he wanted to have some fun and make some magic for his grandkids. This spread locally, and he began delivering gifts to local children. He's gone viral for helping ambulances go through traffic, and has an annual Grinchfest. All of this is to support his local community and raise money for charitable causes. However, he's still the Grinch, and decided to enter the BBC CWR studio to try and steal christmas, and possibly BBC CWR presenter Phil Upton.
