BBC presenter Glenn Campbell was inundated with messages of support (Image: GETTY) Glenn Campbell thanked his social media followers for their messages after he made an appearance on-air. The BBC broadcaster was diagnosed with a brain tumour after he was rushed to hospital following a bike crash in June 2023. The terrifying incident left Glenn, from Islay, with ten broken ribs and a bloodied face.
An MRI scan later alerted doctors to the cancer and he underwent a gruelling operation to remove most of the tumour. Taking to X on June 29, the political editor announced he was slowly returning to work amid the General Election 2024. He tweeted: "Nice to get back to the day job in the final stages of the election with an appearance on Reporting Scotland on Friday.
I’ve been popping up on radio and @BBCScotlandNews online too. Nothing like a full return but good to be involved as I’ve not missed an election since 1997." function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
