Well, I could be wrong. I just remember years ago watching something on "This Morning" - he used to do the gardening features on the show - and they were having a discussion about his past life, i.e the jewellery business, his nervous breakdown and his anorexia and then how he reinvented himself and fought back.

It stuck in my mind because it was the first time I had heard of a man having anorexia.

It is fantastic to see that he has gone from strength to strength and now has his own tv programmes.
