Oh ****..... thats not good... none are ever good, but thats a bad one... RIP Steve Wright... Serious jockin' on a Friday afternoon was one of my favourite listens... he absolutely loved the BBC and he seemingly never wanted to leave and yet...
Gutted about Steve Wright. His Radio 1 show in the early 80’s was a must listen. Had me in stitches when I was a teen. Brilliant broadcasting legend. Very sad day.
RIP Wrighty, a broadcasting legend, another staple of my radio upbringing & listening. I used to drive home with him every night when working, not to forget Sunday morn love songs RIP Steve Wright

Chris Davidson after suffering from dementia - I nevr saw him play (obviously) but met him when we were playing some games in Majorca. He was a pub landlord in Pocklington and was away by himself for few days. We adopted him for a few days with us - a really nice, unassuming bloke.
Played an awful lot of golf at our place he loved it , Charlie Birdsall also suffering too. Sporting I guess .
RIP the 3 children killed in Bristol. It's heartbreaking and happens far too often. Just what are we doing wrong?
