“Now everyone in the Den is talking about sustainability, which I’m pleased about.”

It comes after Deborah last year praised her makeup artist for insisting she get a skin cancer test after noticing a skin blemish.

The businesswoman had a checkup with her doctor and was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in 2015, the second most common form of skin cancer.

The businesswoman told Vogue Williams at the taboo talk podcast: ‘I was aware of [how much the sun could damage my skin]i have fairly fair skin but strangely i have never really sunburned and i think that was a problem for me.

‘I thought I was immune to it… I thought it might seem fair, but obviously my skin can handle it. So it was a bit of a shock when I realized there was some damage.

She added: “I was filming Dragon’s Den, and I don’t have blemishes, but my makeup artist noticed what looked like a [tiny little] white spot that had been on my face for probably about six weeks.

“She kept saying, ‘That’s not cool, Deborah,’ and I was like, ‘Okay, that’s really weird, I don’t usually get pimples.’ I was going to Africa and I thought, before I go, I just need to get checked out. that.

‘I sent a picture to my doctor, who said it could be something, maybe not, but it could be something. Then he got me an appointment at a local hospital and I went and they said, ‘You have a scaly’.

Deborah said she was incredibly lucky to have caught the cancer early and admitted that she may not have been in the same position to tell the story if she hadn’t sought medical help.

“When I say lucky, we caught it incredibly early,” he said.

“I’m evangelical now about telling people, if you have a weird little pimple that won’t go away, don’t think it’s a pimple.”

“I’ve always looked for moles, I know all the rules about moles, I’ve never looked for anything that actually looked like a pimple.

“I never would have known if it wasn’t for Sue, thank goodness.”

The TV star says she now has to be more careful when she’s out in the sun.

He frequently checks his skin for marks and is much more aware of how sunlight can affect his health.

“My prognosis is factor 50,” he explained. “I wear a hat when I’m outside all the time and take care of my skin. I get regular skin checks on all my skin.
