    That's sad, I knew he was ill but thought he was recovering. It's very strange, as yesterday, Channel 4 were doing those little snippets between shows using slebs to answer questions, and he said he'd like to be remembered for being the first face on C4.

    :(

    Yeah I just heard. :(

    He was a good presenter. I'm sure C4 will miss him as well as his audiences.

    I was at a gig earlier and some random kid came up to me and told me this. I thought he was drunk and joking!

    It's a shame. He seemed like the kind of presenter who'd go on forever. :(

    Lovely man, opened our church Summer Fayre once, and was incredibly patient and friendly with his fans.
