Sir John Hurt has been diagnosed with early stage pancreatic cancer.

In a statement, he said: “I have always been open about the way in which I conduct my life and in that spirit I would like

to make a statement.

“I have recently been diagnosed with early stage pancreatic cancer. I am undergoing treatment and am more than optimistic about a satisfactory outcome, as indeed is the medical team.

“I am continuing to focus on my professional commitments
and will shortly be recording Jeffrey Bernard Is Unwell
(one of life’s small ironies!) for BBC Radio 4.”

Our thoughts are with John, and we wish him all the best.
