Alan Whicker dies at 87

[Over The Hill]

Just seen news of this.

Rather like Patrick Moore we are losing characters that are somehow part of us.

I used to love watching Whickers World.

R.I.P Alan.

Loved watching his programmes even though I should have probably been doing my school homework. What the heck, along with my dad they inspired me to travel the world and see many wonderful things for myself.

RIP Mr Whicker.
