Peter Kay reflects on moment that made him realise he had binge eating problem

Peter Kay has opened up about his dramatic weight loss for the first time after years of 'trying everything' amid his lifelong battle with binge eating. The comedian, 52, surprised fans when he returned to the spotlight last year sporting a much slimmer frame following a five-year absence. Now speaking about his new look for the first time, the funnyman revealed he'd tried everything from slimming groups, gym sessions to his mum's Rosemary Conley keep fit videos in a desperate bid to get a grip on his weight. Speaking at an In Conversation With... event hosted by Sara Cox at The Lowry theatre in Salford, which aired on BBC Radio 2 on Monday night, Peter said he had finally made the change over concerns for his health.
