A nice touch.
I've always liked Alastair. Always comes across as a very competent and professional presenter, and seems to have a nice way about him. I recall watching a clip of an ITV News lunchtime bulletin where he was interviewing a mother and her child who grew restless and started crawling around on the table. The way Alastair calmly and kindly spoke to the child and humoured them as they found ways to amuse themselves was rather sweet to see.
Sad to hear of his health issues. If rest is what he needs, then he's done the right thing in stepping back, and I wish him well.
