After a tough battle with cancer, Dermot Murnaghan has bid farewell to the world at the age of 68. The news was confirmed by his family, who released an elaborate statement. Dermot had spent decades informing millions through some of Britain’s biggest news stories.

Dermot urged men to focus on their health and seek testing to avoid cancer diagnosis at later stages.
