George Alagiah returned to BBC News At Six on Thursday night after taking months off to undergo treatment for cancer.
The newsreader, 66, was delighted to be back on the small screen to head up the news programme after discovering in October that he had to deal with a further spread of the disease.
He was first diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer in April 2014 and discovered it had moved to his lungs and lymph nodes in 2020.
