How will Yorkshire television ever recover as he was the only presenter they had?

Rip old bean.

There comes a time when the Grim reaper comes to all of us and says &quot;da-dum, da-dum, duddle-a-dah&quot;

That is sad. :(

He was a shite presenter, but that was his appeal.

I was really shocked to hear about it as I didn't know he'd been ill. The last time I saw his face on tv was on Friday night during channel4's usual questions to celebs in the ad break. His line was that he just wanted to be remembered as the first face on channel4. Famous last words.

Peace,
Adam.

He was a bit of an Alan Partridge presenting-wise, but seemed like a pretty affable chap. Shame.

May I be the first to offer my shoulder to Carol Vorderman. And also my lap.

Trust you Flashy.
I can remember spending long, cold winter afternoons at my grandmother's house in Lincolnshire watching Countdown. There wasn't much else to do.

Now Richard Whiteley is gone, does that mean Countdown is gone also?
