You got those two statements the wrong way around.

He was most famous for being the Harrods boss. He was also the father of the guy who was killed alongside Diana.

His most famous moment.

Press play and the video should work. Just no thumbnail/screen shot picture.

Yes he was always at a game and came around meeting the fans...I remember him kissing my mums hand
The worse thing he did was put that statue up of MJ in the ground...it really had no place there.

...and yes I dont think he ever got over the loss of Dodi.

Yes,
he closed the Harrods Store
then all the very ill children
from the hospital came in.

Actions like that, give him
a nice memory.


But then, a 17 year old worker
when he was 88, claims sexual harassment,
