To miss only two recordings in over fifty years - and both of them only recently - is amazing going.

Well, they managed to replace Humphrey Lyttelton on I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue, so possibly, but who knows.  Maybe do the same thing they did there: get three presenters to take a few episodes each in the next series and see who gels best?  :-\
(I know, even though it's fantasy  :o  ;)  )

What a magnificent life, doing something you love for over fifty years, well into your nineties, with all your marbles to the end. Bravo!

And he got mentioned during Prime Minister's question time.....Just before I hit the 'mute' button.

PMQs is packed with repetition and deviation but would benefit for a lot more hesitation.
