He tested positive for the virus in April but recovered well after a period of self-isolation after testing positive for Covid-19.

He told listeners: "I was very, very fortunate. It's not to gloat or anything, it wasn't a particularly lovely thing to experience, but I was very fortunate.

"I didn't have a fever, I didn't have a flu, I didn't take as much as paracetemol. It was that low level and almost negligible amount of the virus.

"But yet I disappeared because it was the right thing to do, it was in many ways the useful thing to do, I was pretty tired anyway, and taking a couple of weeks just to rest was really a very, very good thing to do.

"Like I say I was in a very fortunate position that I didn't have a serious dose of this thing.
