Default Alan Coren has died

From BBC News Online


Quote:
Humorist and broadcaster Alan Coren has died aged 69 after suffering from cancer, the BBC has announced.

Coren was a regular panellist on BBC Radio 4's satirical show The News Quiz, and also appeared as a team captain on TV programme Call My Bluff.

He edited Punch magazine, wrote several books, and was known most recently for his column in The Times newspaper, which he started in 1989.

Mark Damazer, controller of Radio 4, said his death was a "terrible loss".
I will miss him as I am a regular listener to BBC Radio 4 and the News Quiz

That's a shame. Are you putting this in the obituary thread?
