'I got it seriously bad,' the Only Fools and Horses star says
By Ian YoungsSir David Jason has revealed he had "seriously bad" Covid this summer, which resulted in the actor collapsing when getting out of bed one night.he was fine during the pandemic until succumbing to the virus in July."Because all the muscles weren't working, I collapsed and I fell against the radiator... I was so weak, I couldn't get up."
He attempted to get to the door to call to his wife, but said: "My arms wouldn't work and my legs wouldn't work, so being a very creative and inventive person, I thought, how will I get from here to the door? "So just as I got to the door, the door opened... and it was my good lady wife and she managed to help me get back into bed. But later on the next day, I got carpet burns all down on my forehead and across the top of my nose."
Asked by Kay whether he regrets the fact there are now fewer big moments when people gather round the TV, the actor replied: "I do, yes. Because it's what used to happen in those days and I think it used to help to bring the country or the nation or the viewing public together.
