Heard on the lunchtime news. Sad that we all get old and eventually snuff it. He seemed to have a quiz show formulae that worked with the youth of the time.

Thats a shame, was watching blockbusters on youtube a few months ago, and googled Bob to check he was still with us. RIP Bob.

Heard on the news at lunch time. I guess time catches up with us all eventually, and he'd not had a bad innings, but still a sad day.
