I wondered if he had suffered a stroke at some time
I too was wondering the same. Can't believe it is just an overdose of painkillers. He seemms to be going down the same route as John Diammond. Maybe it is cancer of the tongue. He definately had speech problems. Perhaps a stroke but I am sure we would have heard. Watching this space.
he has the start of parkinsosn disease

You're right Pollythecat....he does sound like John Diamond did.
Thank-you all for replying

Griff Rhys Jones said he is in the early stages of Parkinsons. What a shame!
This is from Wikipedia:~

On 31st December 2008 Smith appeared on Celebrity Mastermind. He was noted to have an issue with his speech which sounded as though he had suffered a stroke. People linked this to his addiction to ibuprofen in 1999. However, Griff Rhys Jones had already stated in an earlier television appearance that Smith was suffering the effects of the early stages of Parkinson�s Disease

Very sad.
It's certainly nothing to do with the overdose - he was absolutely fine in Hustle and there is nothing authorative
to confirm he has parkinsons
Wans't he named by the the taxi drivers of london as one of there worse passengers???
Poor chap, he sounds like somebody who has had maxillofacial surgery
Where and when did GRJ say that, pip?

I can't find a reference to him actually saying it
it's been removed from Wikipedia, prresumably for checking
Sounded to me like he had a cold. A much more likely explanation.
To Puddicat:- he was one of 'their' worst passengers; and yes I too thought he was suffering from a debilitating illness. Did no-one else notice his weight loss?
i said the very same thing, how much weight he had lost
griff let it slip on breakfast tv he had it
