Farewell Humph


My favourite radio host, Humphrey Littleton has died, aged 86. Its a sad irony that as one new person arrives into my life, another old friend leaves. I shall miss Humphrey Littleton who was one of the funniest men on radio and truly inspirational. He hosted the show 'I'm sorry I haven't a clue' which is regularly repeated on BBC radio 7 and to which I've been devoted for almost twenty years.

I'd had a feeling this was coming. Only the other day I suddenly had the notion that there wouldn't be any more shows, that Littleton was going to die, but I ignored it because I have no notion of clairvoyance or anything like that.

The world just got duller. There is no one to replace Humph.
