Benjamin Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 A bit like Clarkson, you either liked or hated him.The back page of the ST Review section doesn't seem the same without him, especially the Hymie jokes.Don't forget he only wrote his last column at Christmas.R I P.

Sprogster Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 A few years ago in his Sunday Times article he referred to a printed Christmas card he was sending to all his friends which featured a photo of him and was promoting his books, He called it the worlds most distasteful Christmas card.I emailed him and asked if he could send his Christmas card to my wife as she could not stand him and it would be a good windup, which to my surprise he duly did! However, to my shock he printed my email in the Sunday Times with his weekly feature and I got a lot of ribbing from friends as a result.Had the opportunity of meeting him a year later and love him or hate him I am sad to hear of his passing because he was one of the last British eccentric showman.
