Jeremy Clarkson is in hospital in Spain being treated for pneumonia.
The Grand Tour host, 57, was admitted to hospital in Majorca on Friday, during a family holiday.
He posted a snap on Instagram of tubes in his arm and his hospital identity tags around his wrist, writing: “Not the sort of bangles I usually choose on holiday.”
Clarkson was on a break with his family after shooting the Amazon Prime show with co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May, when he fell ill.
He had planned to return to work after his holiday.

The TV presenter, 47, was driving an electric super car in Switzerland when it crashed and burst into flames.
Clarkson was dropped from Top Gear in 2015 over what the BBC called an “unprovoked physical attack” on Oisin Tymon.
He went on to reveal that he thought he probably had cancer at the time he hit the Top Gear producer, but later got the all-clear.
