ACTOR and comedian Eric Idle has said he feels lucky “every single day” after surviving pancreatic cancer.

Idle, 82, revealed in 2022 that he had received an early diagnosis and been successfully treated for the illness.

In a Letter To My Younger Self for the Big Issue, the Monty Python star said: “I miss a lot of people. Great people like Mike Nichols.

“I will find myself thinking of a funny line and thinking, you must tell Mike that. Or Jonathan Miller. So many of my heroes have gone, like Robin Williams. I still kind of occasionally speak to Billy Connolly, but I really miss him.
