Graham Norton, a British presenter and TV personality, watched his father, William Walker, suffer from a diagnosis of Parkinson's. His father died in 2006, only seven years after his Parkinson’s diagnosis. Graham Norton described Parkinson’s’ as a “cruel condition.” He said Parkinson’s made his powerfully built father become “like a baby bird that had fallen from the nest.” Norton made a documentary for Parkinson’s The UK in 2013.
