The world of radio and television was in mourning today with the news that game show host and B.B.C. Radio 2 presenter Bob Holness has died aged 83.

There can’t be too many game show hosts who had the genuine people touch who also had the distinction of being one of a handful of people to have played the iconic and suave British spy James Bond. If that wasn’t enough for one life,  to be the subject of one of the greatest urban myths of all time is just outrageously phenomenal for 10 life times, let alone just one.
