World's most irritating DJ? It's a big field of runners and riders for that one. In those times it was pretty much everyone apart from John Peel (and some people didn't like him much either).

(Anyone with a nickname was up there with a chance, Hairy Cornflake, Fluff, Diddy But they all paid homage to Kenny Everett).

He was one of the last “entertaining” radio people IMO. Replaced by real rubbish now, whose chat consists of making themselves laugh at things that aren’t funny, pausing so you also realise that it was a joke…and playing crap music. I graduated from R1 years ago, now I’ve left 2 and am wandering around the airwaves like a fart in a trance. Homeless.

Radio 6 works - as long as it isn't Lauren Laverne, Mary Anne Hobbs, or Cerys Matthews

Cerys is on Add to Playlist, one of the few shows that discusses minor 6th chords.

I thought he was on the road to recovery, but he still looked pretty ill. It's a real shame.

I rather enjoyed their kind of childish delight in everything. The pair of them brought a bit of 'ordinary blokes having fun' to TV.

[gremlin]

Sad. They always came across as nice blokes and not all 'telly'.

Ironic that it was Si King who had the big health scare a few years back with his jam tart.

They just made a series which is airing now, so I thought he was over it too. Great shock to see show up in my news feed.

Yes, didn't see that one coming. RIP Dave; the world is a more dreary place for your passing. Another one of the good guys gone.

I must have caught a recent one, he did look proper sickly.
