Somerset MP’s voice damage ‘painful’ reminder for BBC presenter

Robinson suffered damage to one of his vocal cords during an operation to remove a tumour from his lung in 2015.

“I was more upset, more distressed by losing my voice than by having my cancer diagnosis.

“To think you would be in a room and just couldn’t be heard at all, was pretty horrific, actually.”

The radio presenter was helped by a speech and language therapist.

“These people are saints. They coax you and they teach you to speak again and, in a way, the fact that I am now doing the job I am, as a radio presenter, is proof that it can work.”
