An inquest into the death of renowned TV doctor and broadcaster Michael Mosley is set to begin in November.
Mosley, 67, passed away in June while on a walk on the Greek island of Symi, part of the Dodecanese chain. After a four-day search by local emergency services, his body was found in a rocky area near Agia Marina. Greek authorities later confirmed he died of natural causes.
Mosley's wife, Dr. Clare Bailey Mosley, revealed that he had embarked on an "incredible climb," taken a wrong route, and collapsed in a spot difficult for search teams to locate. The incident occurred after he had left her and friends at Agios Nikolaos beach.
Michael Mosley was widely known for his contributions to health journalism, popularising the 5:2 diet through his book The Fast Diet and hosting various BBC documentaries, including Trust Me, I’m A Doctor. His posthumous documentary, Michael Mosley: Wonders Of The Human Body, which explores the aging process, is set to air on Channel 5 later this month.
The BBC honoured Mosley in July with a day dedicated to his legacy, encouraging audiences to improve their wellbeing by doing "just one thing." Mosley’s innovative and sometimes daring approach to science broadcasting left a lasting impact on public health awareness in the UK.
