" The headline story, and it is relatively dramatic, I suppose, is That about six, Nine Months ago, I began to feel one of my favourite words: a bit discombobulated, " He Said .

" I wasn't becoming forgetful but things like doing up your shoelaces properly - That 's how I wear these lovely moccasins Now - making sure your tie was straight, remembering That The Call time for your programme is four o'clock and not five o'clock, not turning up early or late, and stuff like That . "

Stewart said That , after explaining his concerns to his GP, a scan revealed he had experienced a serious of " minor strokes That are called infarct strokes" - though He Said he had " no idea" they were happening.

According to the NHS, Vascular Dementia is caused by reduced blood flow to The Brain , and is estimated to affect around 180,000 people in the UK.

Urging people with similar symptoms to see their doctors, Stewart added That the issue he has found most difficult is the impact on his wife Sally, with whom he has four children.

" We've been married for nearly half a century, and, you know, your Life Partner , your lover, all of those descriptions That are personal and intimate, That person is reduced - I choose my words very carefully - almost to a carer, " He Said .
