Last programme in the series in which well-known people reveal how they coped with losing their health.
When Roy Castle was taken seriously ill in January he thought he would die. But after eight extraordinary months he is once again preparing to present television's long-running series, Record
Breakers. He has been fighting lung cancer and each stage of his dramatic progress has been filmed for tonight's special programme. As committed non-smoker Roy tells
Lynn Redgrave , he hopes that sharing his experience - and much more besides - might help others, particularly smokers. "If I only have a few days left," he says, "I want to spend those days making people realise what they're doing. They have to know. And so if it's me that's going to be the example, then let it be me."
