A BBC Radio broadcast was interrupted recently when presenter David Fitzgerald experienced a heart issue. Fitz, who typically hosts the morning programme, was on air for only half an hour before colleague Michael Chequer stepped in to take over.
Chequer informed listeners that Fitz was feeling unwell and had left the studio to undergo medical examination, but assured them that he was fine and would be back on air as soon as possible.
He told listeners: “It is Thursday morning, Michael Chequer in for David Fitzgerald who is feeling a little under the weather. He has left the studio to get himself checked out. He is absolutely fine, we will keep you updated and let you know. He will be back with you ASAP”.
