When it didn't, he sought medical advice, " talking in the blokey way that men often talk to a doctor, saying 'I'm sure it's nothing, I'm sorry for coming'. "
He was sent for a biopsy but was later told his results had been lost in transit. He only discovered he had cancer when someone called to arrange another biopsy and told him it was " to see what stage of cancer you have".
A consultant later told him he had throat cancer that had spread to his lymph gland.
" So that's my current state of affairs, " he concluded. " I have cancer, but it's a cancer that can be got rid of. "
On Monday, (formerly Twitter): " I had The First surgery This Morning for this slightly unwelcome cancer.
" All seems to be going to plan, due to The Magnificent staff at St George's but I have these tubes poking out, so I look like a car in my Home Town of Swanley that The Locals are syphoning petrol from".

" I'll be fine. In The Words of [Nottingham Forest FC manager] Steve Cooper , I'll trust The Process . "
The presenter, who also co-hosts The British Scandal podcast and appears as an impressionist on the re-booted Spiting Image, later admitted online that he felt " a bit young" to be given The Diagnosis but hoped his age would aid his recovery.
