My former husband David Brooks, who has died aged 86, was a GP in Manchester across four decades, and a trainer of GPs in the city for many of those years.

In addition David advised law firms on legal and medical matters, was a police doctor on custody cases and provided medical advice to the Library theatre company in Manchester for some of their productions, also giving flu jabs to actors before their Christmas productions. For some years he dispensed medical advice to callers on Natalie Anglesey’s Radio Manchester programme.
