The Changing Rooms star says Britain needs to revolutionise its attitude to growing old to avoid a "tsunami of health problems".

And the 59-year-old father of two added: "Speaking as an old person it boils down to the fact it is down to us. We need to look after us. Don't drink too much, don't smoke, take more exercise and broaden our horizons.
