Flog it! Star Michael Baggott complained about the level of worries he had received on the crisis – hit NHS, just a few weeks before his death – and said that he was 'badly dried out' and 'dying of thirst'.

The BBC Antiques Expert, 65, died yesterday after a heart attack, a statement on his social media confirmed on Monday evening.

Baggott had previously left bed -bound for weeks after a suspected stroke last October.

The NHS falls under increasing pressure from patients and politicians for the more and more poor care that patients receive under work.

Older patients have complained that they are left in corridors for hours, and damn research has recently suggested that more than 57,000 patients died last year as a result of waiting for more than 12 hours in A&E.

In December, the antiques expert Mr. Baggott went to social media, where he cataloged the poor care he claimed to have received while he was treated in the Good Hope Hospital in Birmingham.

In a worrying series of clips that were set at his X account at that time, he claimed that he had hardly got any water through his mouth and was 'thirsty'.

He filmed himself and said to fans: 'It is now a week ago and I was able to take liquids for two days. I was left without water and I was poorly dried out.

'The last three days I have received a liter of water, which is insufficient to prevent me from being dried out.

“Getting the holes between water are 15 hours, 5 pm without water, 12 hours without water and currently 15 hours without water intravenously.”

He added: “I die the thirst in a British NHS hospital and nobody seems willing to do anything about it.” Although this was never confirmed, there could have been medical reasons why he didn't get much water, such as the inability to swallow and the danger of suffocating.

“I want to say that the nursing personnel, the junior doctors here, have been the saving grace. They all want to help, but they can't. The senior management and the senior doctors, whom I never see, always refuse water, always refuse the treatment.

'They told me yesterday if I did not instruct my ideas, I will never be able to walk again in three weeks. Of course the junior staff told me that this was nonsense, but it is symptomatic for treatment at this place.

“All employees bust their intestines to help you, the management and the senior surgeons not,” he concluded.

MailOnline has contacted Good Hope Hospital for comments.

The post in which the death of the antique expert is confirmed was: 'Heart broken to share that Michael died yesterday in the hospital at a heart attack after a stroke in October.

“He was a very popular son, brother, cousin and uncle who will be missed deeply and deeply. There will be a memorial service in the coming weeks, the details of which will be shared here. '

Bargain hunt and Antiques Roadshow -star Charles Hanson was one of them to pay tribute.

'Rest in peace @baggottsilver a giant of our antique industry, our' Arthur Negus' and never afraid to call 'an expert' who is wrong, including myself. Michael's hunger for knowledge for the 'object within' also earned much more TV time for a real and right expert. '

Flog it! Expert Nick Hall tweeted too: 'I am sorry to hear this, Michael was a real connoisseur and ambassador of the Antiques World, a font of knowledge and generous with his knowledge, a racingor and all -round top clow, a pleasure to have you known Michael. '

He shared a Throwback photo with his sister on December 23 and wrote that he 'thinks back to many happier times'.

His last X post was shared on December 29, when he criticized another episode of Antiques Roadshow: 'Expert: I can see this date London in 1758. Well, he must have had the time Date letter before 1762 hit it. You can get away with this s ** t when I am dead, not before #antiquesroadshow. '
