I was only having a conversation about him a week ago and looked at some old YouTube clips.

Great man.

Really sad to hear this. He was a legend for my generation and miles ahead of his time in the environment.

An amazing man

Aw bless him I loved his programmes as a kid he really Brough the subject to life with his animated enthusiasm.
Sadly he rarely gets a mention, I'm sure he was a real inspiration to many.
