Comic Williams's heart op success

Comedian Robin Williams is expected to make a full recovery after a three hour operation to replace a heart valve. A doctor treating the comic said Williams would regain "normal heart function" over the next eight weeks. Williams, 57, had the surgery after experiencing shortness of breath during his Weapons of Self Destruction tour. A spokesperson said the comic would restart the tour in the autumn and had even joked after surgery that he now had "some great new material". - BBC
