BBC Breakfast star makes passionate plea to viewers over 'double the risk' of cancer View 4 Images

BBC Breakfast guest Colin McFarlane made a heartfelt appeal to viewers on Saturday, 29th November, following a contentious position taken by the NHS .

This week, the National Screening Committee (NSC), comprised of doctors and economists, cautioned the government that widespread screenings for prostate cancer are "likely to cause more harm than good".

Prominent figures such as Sir Chris Hoy and Sir Stephen Fry , both diagnosed with the disease, have voiced their opposition to the recommendation.

Outlander actor McFarlane, who revealed his own diagnosis in 2023, appeared on the BBC show this weekend to provide his own fervent advice for men with health worries.
