McFly singer Tom Fletcher has said seeing Paddington arrive on stage in a new musical about the fictional bear "makes me cry every time".

The 39-year-old has written the music for Paddington The Musical, which will debut at London's Savoy Theatre on November 1, and follows the small bear from Peru as he lands in London where a chance encounter with the Brown family leads to him finding a new home.

Fletcher said: "We've seen it a lot of times now, and we've witnessed that moment of the impact and step out on to the stage, and it still makes me well up and makes me cry every time."
