He brightened up my mornings for years.
Not many of the TV mourners have mentioned his naughty side, I listened once to him talking about "golden rain" and I am sure his producers were unaware what he was saying.

I can remember when he presented Blankety Blank. It was essential Thursday night viewing along with the fish & chip supper I had as a kid on that particular night of the week.
