If you suffer from tonsilitis yourself, you will be therefore very aware that it affects people in many different ways.
I have years that I get it 2 or 3 times a year, (and some years pass with no bouts) and whilst it does not totally floor me the way it appears to do with you - I do have the most awful fevers, skin clammy, throbbing throat, pounding head and ears - but I can still function where I have to. I can still speak but it is excruciatingly painful, but I can use my vocal chords.

But he still managed to reach those notes, when he was what? 1 week into the illness? Granted he looked Ill but I struggle to believe it was really tonsilitis if he was bedridden for a week but still managed to sing reasonably well, his voice would have been incredibly crackly and uneven but it wasn't. Given that he's *****d his job for sympathy all series it wouldn't surprise me if he's overselling the illness for sympathy too.
