Dark Knight star Colin McFarlane is undergoing treatment for prostate cancer just months after his brother was diagnosed with the same disease. The 61-year-old, who is also the voice of The Cube, told of his diagnosis as he urged other men to "take action".
He said: "In December 2022, nine months on from my brother’s prostate cancer diagnosis, I too was diagnosed. I was already aware of the risk to me, so had been having annual, and then six monthly, regular PSA blood tests with my GP.
“Thankfully, just over a year ago I had told my brother to get a PSA blood test, otherwise he wouldn’t have been diagnosed because he had no symptoms. I must put my diagnosis into context by saying I am one of the lucky ones. I have been able to catch this very early, which is key as I have no symptoms at all.
