The voice of the Food Programme on R4 is no more. I'll miss him.

The Food Programme was never the same after he retired. It used to be fascinating and campaigning; now it's twee and annoying. A great broadcaster with an independent mind.

Yes, sad that he's gone. He had such a good radio voice. Quite timberous.
