BBC Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts was told he had 'less than a few hours to live'

Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts has been given new lease of life after an undiagnosed issue with his heart led him to being told he had 'less than a few hours to live'. Now, a year on, he has opened up about his life-saving surgery.

The television star, who has also appeared on ITV's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! was rushed to hospital last year after a build up of fluid around his heart expanded, causing a great deal of pressure on his heart and pain - read more on that here as he gave Good Morning Britain an update on his health at the time.

Now, in a new interview, the 59-year-old has given details of the procedure that saved his life and explained how, had it happened three weeks earlier, he'd have been dead.
