Now there is one I would never have thought to compare to Mick Jagger!

He topped himself at 52.

Alistair Cooke ( not the cricketer ) 1908 - 2004 presented the BBC's "Letter from America" radio programme for nearly sixty years, retiring only shortly before his death.

A giant of the media compared to today's pygmies.

The Man In the High Castle

Yes, he was extraordinary. I used to listen to "Letter From America" every week.

I would never have thought to compare him to Mick Jagger either.

Just googled Arthur Askey - 1900-1982 and was working up to shortly before his death!

I think he was in Petworth Cottage Hospital for a while before he died.

I am just mentally comparing Busy Bee to Paint It Black.

Oh I didn't mean he was the same age............he just followed Billy Cotton on a Sunday lunchtime on the radio didn't he? vaguely remember as a kid
