Presenter Jamie Theakston reveals he's cancer free

Jamie Theakston said doctors had told him he had a one in six chance that he might never be able to talk again

The 53-year-old presenter revealed that he had stage 1 laryngeal cancer in September, telling fans he had undergone an operation to remove a lesion from his vocal cords.

Speaking to his Heart Breakfast co-host Amanda Holden and Jason King who has been covering his morning role, Theakston said: "I've got some news for you. Because I can tell you that as of today, I'm cancer free".

Speaking on the four-month anniversary of his cancer diagnosis, Theakston admitted: "I've had enough of hospitals and operations, and it's just lovely to be back."

The former Live & Kicking presenter has said he first became aware of issues with his throat after fans contacted him to say they'd noticed a change in his voice.
