I too saw the item and was disappointed with the content, a wasted opportunity. Now I could be completely wrong but I was watching tv while dodging about the house this morning when they were going through tomorrow's items and I heard the resident 'doc slot' medic, Dr Chris Steele on ITV3 This Morning programme, say he had an item on about patients with a 'stuttering heart'. This could be something completely different but I will watch it just in case it turns out to be about AF given the recent mention on TV. Programme runs 10.30am to 12.30 but they give items and timings out at the beginning of the programme so no need to sit through the whole programme. Thought it was maybe worth a mention so I will tune in in the morning just in case.

AF Association member and supporter is being interviewed on ITV Wales tonight along with leading cardiologist in her area, Dr Lena Izzat. Both are highlighting the importance of early detection in AF and subsequent appropriate and effective management to make sure we all remain safe and able to enjoy life. Getting the message - Detect and Protect, Know Your Pulse, helps others, prevents suffering and saves lives.

She tells me it went well but sadly I can't get ITV Wales in Devon so won;t be able to watch it.

Hi Bob, as soon as we have the link we will share and circulate! Hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest!

This is a link to ITV Wales news, but never used it before so don't know whether it'll work or not:
