“Thanks to the lovely staff at @SheffChildrens who are doing a brilliant job with staff shortages at the moment.

“The nurse who dressed it was 90 mins into a 13 hour shift! Love the NHS.”

It was a busy weekend for Dan, who had just completed his first week reading the news on Channel 5 alongside Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije at 5pm each day.

He also revealed he had just finished writing his new book, Standing on the Shoulders, which he said would be out in October and is already available to pre-order.
