Bill Turnbull. RIP

Just heard that former BBC breakfast host Bill Turnbull has died, 5 years after being diagnosed with prostate cancer, as some of you will know this is an issue very personal to me. RIP.

A very calming voice and a wonderful presenter. Listened to him on Classic FM in recent years.

So glad it seems to be under control jasst and long may that continue.

My father and my father in law also have prostate cancer. It was because of them I got checked out. Always worth getting this looked at gents as just because you may feel already it can be caught early which is a good thing.

Glad to hear yours is under control Jasst.
Sad news about Bill Turnbull, he struck me as the type of presenter I remember seeing when I growing up on the BBC, professional, smart and good at his job.
