Chris Tarrant rushed to hospital following health scare on flight returning from Thailand

Chris Tarrant was rushed to hospital last night after being taken ill on a flight returning from Thailand.

The former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire presenter, 67, told cabin crew aboard the flight from Bangkok that he would need an ambulance immediately upon arriving at Heathrow.

He was taken from the tarmac to Charing Cross Hospital in Central London, where he was seen by emergency doctors.

His manager Paul Vaughan said he had spoken to the star in hospital, who sounded ‘very tired’.

Tarrant had been in Burma filming a new Channel 5 travel series.

A London Ambulance Service spokesman confirmed that one of its crews had taken a man from Heathrow to hospital ‘as a priority’.
