Great DJ, should've been a much bigger star but wasn't pushy, unlike a certain other radio DJ of the same era.

Seems to be doing well and he seems to have a good head of natural hair.

I remember he was one of the first four presenters of Top of the Pops along with David Jacobs, Alan Freeman and some bloke I'd never heard of at the time.

I remember him mostly with Jo Douglas on the Six Five Special, every Saturday at 5 minutes past six "Over the points, over the points........."

Indeed. Hence my reference to an "avuncular man".
