Dr Sandesh Gulhane, Glasgow MSP and married to TV doctor Punam Krishan, jumped in to save a man outside Holyrood, performing CPR after the man collapsed following a cardiac arrest.

A Glasgow MSP married to Strictly star Dr Punam Krishan performed CPR outside the Scottish Parliament last week after a man became unresponsive.

Dr Gulhane, member for Glasgow and Scottish Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care, told BBC Radio Scotland's Mornings programme: "Unfortunately he didn't have a pulse and stopped breathing so we had to resuscitate him.

Dr Gulhane, married to TV's Dr Punam Krishan, previously worked with a resus unit as a junior doctor before he became an MSP, the Daily Record reports. He said: "My concern was for people on the team who hadn't experienced a situation like that before," he said. He added: "As a GP or a junior doctor, when these things happen, you have to continue your day, you can't just stop. So I went back to the round table and got on with my day because it is important that you do move on from these situations."
