61-year-old radio DJ and former presenter of 'The Old Grey Whistle Test', Bob Harris, has begun radiotherapy treatment for prostrate cancer. The Radio 2 staple was diagnosed with the cancer five months ago and is set to undergo a two month treatment program, beginning immediately. The softly-voiced presenter commented that he was strengthened by the messages of support he had received from across the world and that he hoped to be back working soon, hopefully in time for the Country Music Association Awards in Nashville in November.
