Bacon: 'Most shocking moment of my life'

Broadcasting House

Available for over a year

TV and radio presenter Richard Bacon describes the moment he was told he had to be put into a coma for at least a week. The former Blue Peter contracted a lung infection and when he woke from the coma found out he had nearly died. He was on a flight travelling between LA, where he now lives, and London, when he became ill. He told Luke Jones, from Radio 4's Broadcasting House, how he was treated at Lewisham Hospital.
