The 13 a side code would not be my favourite of the two, but I always liked listening to Ray's voice and I enjoyed his commentaries more than many of the games themselves!

Tom Lehrer - great loss, and sorely needed by his country right now.

I know he was famous for "the Elements", but my favourite is "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park".

Great talent.

Prefer his sining of the periodic table, but that is an excellent song

Ray French a great commentator on Rugby League, a sad loss. Ditto Tom Lehrer, who I only knew through his periodic table song.
