I didn't get to see much television in the 70s so missed the television documentaries that made Ray Gosling famous, but fondly remember his radio work, that extraordinary voice, northern turn of phrase & delivery. No, he's not dead, thankfully, but BBC have been re-showing a few documentaries made about his more recent years - bankruptcy, moving into sheltered accommodation, sorting out a lifetime's accumulation in his house. They're touching, moving, and well worth watching on iplayer while you can.

This could be any of us in thirty odd years time.
