Sad. A great broadcaster. I went to his house once near Romsey when I was working for Southern Water (he was out though) and his hallway was covered in framed photos of him with world leaders and other hugely famous and influential people he had interviewed (like Mother Teresa etc...).

 

RIP Sir David.

RIP. A mate used work to at that house, said he'd greet you like a long lost friend.

Saints fan as well I believe. Short of being in hospital if you're going to have a heart attack a cruise ship is a pretty good place. Very experienced in emergency medicine and resus techniques, 2 doctors and 3 nurses on each cruise. Would have been with him in a couple of minutes tops and there are trained first aiders everywhere. RIP, he lived in the village where my family come from and he was a very down-to-earth normal bloke by all accounts.

When I was in Southampton heart unit last year there was a doctor from Cunard working in admissions in order to get experience. They told me that after every cruise there is a batch of new patients brought in from the docks.

 

Nice man, great broadcaster, he will be missed.
