Such sad news Ann, I wish him a speedy recovery. The MP for Isle of Wight Mr Andrew Turner suffered a stroke and has made a full recovery. I hope Andrew Marr does similar.

[Ann]

Says he is still able to speak which is a good sign.

[DTCwordfan]

poor chap, wish him well and a full recovery

[dotty.]

He's been so busy in the last 2 or 3 years, must be a sign he needs to lower the pace, hope it goes well for him.,

[phleb]

Oh so sad, hope he recovers very soon. Thinking of him and family.

[ferret69]

Left wing hypocrite who tried to hide his affair, crap interviewer, should now retire on his fat bbc pay and pension.

[dotty.]

He is a successful author of a series of well researched and excellently written historical biographies and an extremely well respected journalist and broardcaster, no idea who you're thinking about ferret

[emmie]

wish him well, knew someone who suffered a stroke and it took her long time to recover.

[LazyGun]

Thats a young age for a stroke, especially for someone concerned about their fitness levels.

I wish him well, and I may have to rethink my own diet and fitness regime..

[bundleone]

Who could not wish him well? he is a great presenter,

[Gromit]

There are different severity of strokes. And though it is more common in older people, children can and do suffer them. Until we know a bit more about his condition it is too early to get all concerned or talk about pensioning him off.

[pugthedog]

hope he makes a full recovery

[Sqad]

LazyGun....yes ...i agree, particularly as he is a fitness fanatic.
Difficult to say from the media, if this "stroke" is embolism, thrombus or bleed.

[Smowball]

Seems quite young for a fit person.

[Hopkirk]

He's the same age as me.

That's frightening.

[LochNessMonster]

Wish him a speedy recovery,
