The BBC has assured viewers that Jimmy Tarbuck's illness scare is nothing to worry about.
The comedian was forced to pull out of Strictly Come Dancing last weekend, prompting speculation that he was suffering from a serious illness.
However a spokeswoman for the corporation reveals Tarbuck has been diagnosed with high blood pressure, and will return for the next show. "He's hoping to be back next week performing the tango," she said.
