I think he has just lost his wife.
Edward, you are quite correct, sadly; Helen died on May 2. They were married 57 years. Condolences to Sir Michael.
How sad this story is for one of our national treasures.
To Michael I send sincere condolences and hope your pain is overtaken by memories of so many happy years spent together.
