Kammy’s shut door on Attic
TV TOO TIRING FOR ILL LEGEND
CHRIS Kamara is set to quit Cash In The Attic.
The presenter admits it will be too tough for him to film another series due to his speech apraxia.
He said: “There is a new series coming up, but I’m not sure I’m actually up for doing it.”
Chris filmed his first run of the show earlier this year and it left him exhausted.
He said: “It was so great to do the show, but there was a lot of travelling. The problem was, I live in Leeds so I had to travel down to Folkestone the night before a recording, then do the show all day and then get home at midnight.
“At that time I was suffering really bad with my condition. It took loads out of me.
“I don’t want to end up doing something like that again.”
Chris, 64, was diagnosed with speech apraxia last year and it was so severe he feared his career was over.
But after getting treatment, he has been able to continue with some shows.
The star is making a documentary about the condition to raise awareness.
Chris Kamara: My Life With Apraxia will air on ITV1 next month.
