gcreptile 10,979 Posted January 15, 2020 Yeah, it seems to me that the medical sciences (thankfully!) made quite a bit of progress in the bowel cancer department in the past two years. That's how, in my opinion, Greg Gilbert, George Alagiah and Deborah James, could so well so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,480 Posted January 15, 2020 Why is Deborah James discussed in this thread anyway? Even cancer mum addicts the Mirror call her a BBC Presenter in their headlines and admit she was a journo long before getting the cancer. imo it gaves an unwanted respectability to the complete no name picks by linking the two.
