To be honest I'm surprised he was still alive. He's been around ever since I first watched the telly.
RIP Old Man.

I'm pretty sure I heard him on Workers Playtime at lunch time on the radio when I was a lad. In the early days on tv he always wore a crew neck sweater. He certainly had a long career in broadcasting and will be sorely missed. RIP

Didn't realise he started out as a comedian? or that he stood against Tony Benn in Chesterfield in 1984. Interesting and varied career.
