He is a much-loved British actor who has appeared in the hit shows Men Behaving Badly and Doc Martin, the final series of which will hopefully air later this year. And while the 60-year-old comedian and presenter has recently appeared on our screens in his latest 'Islands of' series, ' Martin Clunes: Islands of the Pacific ', his healthy appearance has changed his life.
Showcasing a more svelte figure during the series, which came out in January, fans will know that the actor is an advocate for the renowned 5:2 diet, which he has followed for some time.
In an interview recently with Mail Online, he explained his reasoning for taking up that particular diet, with which he lost three stone: "I was fat – and while I was getting heavy, I had tired knees and stuff. So, I thought I’d try that diet and the weight came off. “I lost about three stone in as many months. It’s great – and it’s supposed to be good for cholesterol, too," the star said.
