CCTV images have been released showing missing British TV doctor Michael Mosley about 20 minutes after he was last seen by his wife on a Greek island earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 67-year-old left his wife on a beach on the island of Symi about 1:30pm on Wednesday, local time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mosley set off from Agios Nikolaos beach towards the fishing village of Pedi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CCTV images appear to show Mosley wearing a cap and holding an umbrella in the main street of Pedi at 1:52pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The images, released by police, could shed some light on what happened to Mosley after leaving the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Officials were concerned he may have come to harm while walking along the rocky coastal path to Pedi, but the CCTV images dispel that theory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Symi’s mayor, Lefteris Papakalodoukas, said people had also seen Mosley walking through the town with an umbrella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have eliminated the possibility he had an accident along the footpath [to Pedi] … but we’ve lost him from here onward because there are no more cameras,” he told the BBC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The search for Mosley had ramped up earlier on Friday, with divers reportedly joining police, firefighters and volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A sniffer dog, drones and a helicopter are also being used in the search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

British media is reporting Mosley’s four children have also travelled to Symi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mosley is well-known in Britain and Australia for popularising the intermittent fasting diet and rose to fame with appearances on the BBC.<\/p>\n\n\n

He has also appeared on television shows filmed in Australia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mosley had been holidaying on the island with his wife Clare Bailey, who reported him missing when he did not return from the walk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concerns for Mosley’s safety have been amplified as temperatures in Symi have been extremely high this week, reaching around 40 degrees Celsius.<\/p>\n\n\n

The picturesque island of Symi sits on the eastern side of the Aegean Sea, about 6.5 kilometres from T\u00fcrkiye’s coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rocky island is 16km long and home to about 2,500 residents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
