The TV doctor- disappeared on a Greek Island!

Just seen a report.

Early days, but it's a bit odd nonetheless.

not promising after 24 hours plus

Sad demise.

It is.

Comments from bar owner (iirc and not another local) in a report saying police had searched there several times.

All a bit strange, and sad.

Sad news

 A good guy, who in a world of social media perfectionists, offered a lot of helpful & achievable advice.

I was expecting “if only he wasn’t on a fast day”.

Shame that he went before he could see how his lifestyle changes have any effect on old age

It must just be me, because until a few days ago, I don't think I'd ever seen or heard of this bloke

I'm no doctor like but bowling about in 45 degree sunshine at his age with no carbs inside him and nothing to eat for 12 hours can't be a good idea.

Hard to believe that such an intelligent bloke would do that.

Heard of trust me, I'm a doctor but if asked who presented it I'd have no idea

Seen his name but couldn't tell you what diets or exercise he championed

Same. As was the fact he was apparently a Daily Mail columnist

Id heard of the 5:2 diet but wouldn’t have known it was him

I was probably aware of him because of the missus' interest in such things. She's watched a number of his documetaries.

Odd that some folk think he was some sort of This Morning Claire Raynor type - he's like proper famous, for some brilliant programmes that he made and then moved into presenting.

I didn't know any of this either

I had a look at a report the other day about him and it mentioned This Morning

I've never been on the 5:2 diet or done short burst training

or watched Trust me, I’m a doctor, of The truth about

well I might have seen them, dunno, but certainly don't know who was on it

anyway

just never been on my radar till now

You need to listen to Radio 4 more. I probably need to listen to it a little less.

But, I need to keep up with me Archers!

Not had TV for a few days as getting internet tomorrow, not missed TV I have to say. Very happy with the radio and watching an episode of the old All Creatures on DVD in the evening. I've realised I'm actually about 75 really

There’s new research linking intermittent fasting to risk of cardiovascular issues.

Similar. 

Not seen everything, but caught bits of some etc.

Seemed a decent bloke.

Can't see myself fasting though. Fuck that.

they'd better repeat some of those shows - mind you, folk can listen on Sounds.

The recent ones on eating certain nuts and flax seeds was interesting - basically even with the salt, eat those nuts people.
