Jeremy Clarkson has spoken out for the first time after revealing that he had an urgent heart procedure.
The Clarkson's Farm star revealed over the weekend that at the time of the procedure he was days away from death because of blocked arteries.Giving an update on Sunday night, he said: "I’m very grateful to everyone who sent supportive messages but I’m fine.“I just have to not do any manual labour or dishwasher emptying for the next four years," he told the Sun.“At least I think that’s what the doctor said.
After hearing that former Scottish first minister Alex Salmond had a fatal heart attack, he decided to go to see his doctor. Writing in The Sunday Times, Clarkson said he went to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford via an ambulance, where a heart attack was ruled out after he had an electrocardiogram , blood tests and X-rays.He said he then went to an "operating theatre" after further checks and doctors said he was perhaps "days away" from getting very ill.
