Veteran BBC broadcaster Paul Gambaccini has revealed he has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, saying the condition brings an 'uncertain future' but insisting he will continue presenting the music programmes that have made him one of Britain's most recognisable radio voices.
The 77-year-old, known as the 'Professor of Pop', said he received the diagnosis in early 2025 and remains determined to stay on the air, telling listeners that 'life goes on as normal' despite the progressive illness.
