Michael Parkinson RIP

Sorry to hear the sad news that Michael has passed away aged 88. Mike was probably the greatest interviewer on tv and his shows were a must view. He was a keen cricket fan and loved jazz, his collection and knowledge of jazz music was very impressive.
RIP Mike and thanks for the great shows

Very sad news.
He was a staple must watch with a very witty and dry humour.
I remember is extreme control when Steve Martin cut his tie in half. :smt013
RIP Michael and thanks for all the memories.
