Marr discharged from hospital

The BBC broadcaster Andrew Marr has left hospital almost two months after suffering a stroke.

Glasgow-born Mr Marr, who presents The Andrew Marr Show on BBC 1, fell ill on January 8, but will continue his recovery at home, where he will undergo a physiotherapy regime.

The 53-year-old, who has received messages of support from across the political spectrum, is expected to return to work later this year.
