We told how dad-of-four Frank was taken to hospital in Qatar when he became ill on a long-haul flight to Thailand on March 3.

Doctors diagnosed a viral infection and there were fears he had meningitis.

He had further treatment in the UK but was too ill to pick up an award on March 28.

A source said: “Frank was in a bad way for a long time and people were worried – but is now thankfully fighting back to fitness.
