Watch viral video of Leeds residents 'dancing in the street' while social distancing in lockdown

Residents of Swinnow Gardens left their homes at 10am on Saturday for the dance and singalong - dressed in a variety of vibrant outfits.

The residents danced to popular song 'dancing in the street' by David Bowie and Mick Jagger.

Many Leeds residents took to social media to say the video made them 'smile'.

One said: "This is just brilliant, really did make me smile."

Another added: "I wish my street did the same!"
