Doesn't fit in Current Affairs, but Hot Press has a remarkable interview with Simon Young, who was everywhere on TV/radio in the late Eighties to the early Nineties. He then promptly disappeared with trace, which he has now revealed was due to a nervous breakdown. This coincided with his father's death and his marriage break-up. He then suffered a series of mini-strokes while recovering in hospital and almost died on the operating table when built-up fluid was being removed. He now hopes to make a radio comeback, here's wishing him all the best.
