Clive:
Some of you may remember that I saw him at a jazz festival less than two years ago.  He was a great musician and a wicked comedian.

Simon:
Apparently, he was still broadcasting up to a month ago.  I'm not really into Jazz, but find the 'lighter' stuff enjoyable occasionally.

GillE:
 :cry:

I'm an "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" devotee and as such I shall miss him dreadfully.  He's provided me with so much laughter over the years.

I wonder if his funeral cortege will pass through Mornington Crescent?

Simon:
I'm sure many people will miss him, given that his death was relatively sudden, but he did well to carry on broadcasting right up to the age of 86.
