TV star Dame Esther Rantzen revealed that she didn’t expect to see last Christmas after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. Despite accepting that there is no cure for her condition, she credited treatment for delaying the progression of her cancer by three years. Dame Esther, known for her role in That’s Life, joined Dignitas in 2023 and has been an advocate for assisted dying legislation. She criticized the delays in passing The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, expressing her frustration with lobby groups opposing the concept. She called out the House of Lords for obstructing the bill’s progress and highlighted the need for a democratic process that respects the will of the public. Dame Esther also commended the NHS for extending a pilot scheme using AI and robotics to improve early detection of lung cancer, emphasizing the importance of advancements in cancer treatment. Regarding the NHS screening programme, she questioned the upper age limit of 74, suggesting that individuals over 75 should not be excluded based on age. With more than 49,000 people diagnosed with lung cancer annually, Dame Esther stressed the significance of early detection and treatment in improving life expectancy for patients.
