James Martin’s Saturday Morning viewers were left in tears after a touching moment with his "TV dad" Brian Turner. The ITV show host James Martin told 76-year-old chef he loves him as Brian gave an update about his health following a stroke last year.
Brian made a return to TV on the show alongside chef and presenter James and addressed recent health issues as they began a segment about how to cook sage lamb cobbler. James, 50, said: "Now first of all you want to say thank you - there's the camera - because you've not been very well recently..." as he gestured to the camera.
The former Ready Steady Cook regular explained: "Well, unfortunately I had a stroke in June last year and the people at the London hospital were fantastic and helpful. So, excuse me if I just make a stammer occasionally, but we will catch up at the end."
