Former BBC Breakfast show presenter Bill Turnbull has tragically passed away after a five year battle with cancer.
The 66-year-old Classic FM presenter was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer in 2017 and had been receiving care from the Royal Marsden and Ipswich Hospitals, St Elizabeth Hospice and his GP.
In a statement, the presenter's family said: “He was resolutely positive and was hugely buoyed by the support he received from friends, colleagues, and messages from people wishing him luck. It was a great comfort to Bill that so many more men are now testing earlier for this disease.
