                              Not someone I deliberately listened to, but he did many kind things, was a great broadcaster, said what he thought without offending anyone, helped raise over £200,000,000 for Children in Need, had great wit and charm, changed a lot of peoples thoughts and lives, had a loving family and a world of friends and fans who loved him just as much.............not a bad life and legacy, and I felt saddened at the loss of someone I'd never even met.:love30::coffee:
