[Broadcaster Jeremy Paxman has revealed he has been
diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
The former Newsnight presenter said he was
receiving "excellent" treatment and that his
symptoms are "currently mild".
"I plan to continue broadcasting and writing
for as long as they'll have me," he said.
The 71-year-old has hosted University Challenge
since 1994 and is renowned for his fiercely
inquisitorial interviewing style.]

At least he is doing OK
on meds.
And will carry on TV
so long as they allow him.
