chartpolski 28,504 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 The grand old character died today, His TV show, The Sky At Night, has run for over 50 years. I met and had a craic with him, some years ago, in an airport lounge, when we where both travelling to the Southern Hemisphere for vastly different reasons, me for hunting and drinking, him to see a solar eclipse ! A mate who was with me, asked him " Hows Uranus ! ? Mr Moore never missed a beat, and launched into a funny monologue ! Another one of the Grand Old Men of Television gone !
