In the video, which has received hundreds of supportive comments, Gareth began by saying: “I’ve been asked to do an interview on BBC Breakfast next week live and I’m filled with anxiety, I’m having sleepless nights over it.

“I’ve done thousands of these interviews in the past but my speech in that particular speaking situation at the minute isn’t great and I absolutely know I’m going to find it a real struggle.”
