Grumpy gran aged 75 is global Fortnite gaming sensation

A 75-year-old Scottish grandmother has become a videogaming sensation after teaming up with one of the world’s most famous Fortnite players.

Cath Bowie, aka Grumpygran1948, has been hooked on Fortnite since being introduced to it by her grandson.

She spends up to six hours a day playing online – where her skills and hilarious commentary were spotted by US YouTuber SypherPK.

Their first “duo” racked up more than half a million views.

And Grumpygran1948 now has a squad of thousands of devoted fans all over the world.

Cath, from Moray, said: “When I first told my grandson I was going to start streaming, he was aghast.

“He said: ‘You can’t do that – nobody will watch you, nobody will follow you’. So of course now he doesn’t know what to say.”
