Sadly passed away
To me he narrated and was in the best angling show ever "Catching the impossible"
and he loved his fishing as well

Just seen him summed up pretty well on Twitter.

"He didn't have any children of his own, but he was like a granddad to millions of them"

He'll be missed. He basically had a connection with multiple generations of kids through Jackanory, Wombles, Doctor Who etc.

Agree with all

A wonderful rich voice from a generation when we demanded more from our narrators than 'yes, get in!'

RIP

Really sad news, a great character in many classics and the voice of passion for angling
