And after returning to his desk, Tubs was met with a huge pile of cards from fans who wanted to wish the popular presenter well. He said: "Good morning everybody. The good news, for those of you who actually listen to the radio, is that I'm back on the radio at 9 o'clock. "I'm back to my desk and let me just say thank you to all the people - it seems to be mostly children - from all over the country who sent in messages of good will and even an Easter wreath."
