The parents of the first British person to contract Ebola during the outbreak in West Africa say he is recovering well.
William Pooley, 29, has spent the last week in a special isolation unit at Royal Free Hospital in London.
His parents, Robin and Jackie, told the BBC they knew he was improving when he ordered a "bacon butty".
