woolley Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 The Big Show. Love the show, Steve. He was Marmite wasn't he? You either bought into it, or you just didn't get it at all. Must have been something pretty sudden, although he did have a few bouts of ill health before his daily show get chopped. Carried an awful lot of excess weight in recent years.

Albert Tatlock Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Very sad. Been doing a lot of UK driving recently and got back into listening to him. Used to love his 80s/90s shows...and the phone-in 'guests' such as Mr Angry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passing Time Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 So sad, his afternoon radio show was a favourite when I was driving up and down the UK. More recently his Saturday pick of the pops was worth listening to. He'll be greatly missed. RIP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 69 is no age to go. But, if you have to go, it's a great position to go in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Similarly, I used to listen to him a lot when driving in the UK when I lived there. Sad really, it's a bit like a part of my life has gone as they were happy times. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice of Reason Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Loved the David Bowie impression ( don’t think it was by SW himself) of “ tell me what the time is” Also by SW “ get the geese off” RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
