Yes the most memorable quote of that entire war. A credit to the BBC.

Quote:
Former war reporter Martin Bell paid tribute to a "quiet, decent man" who was "very thorough and very good at his job".

Somehow, it seems fitting that the Harrier Jump Jet made its last flight recently. The two are linked in my mind because of that quote.

Without a doubt, a legendary reporter - except whenever I hear his name I always think of The Day Today with their take on his name...
Peter O'Hanraha-hanrahan reports from Brussels
and
"Peter, you've lost the news!"

No comparison with the real thing, of course, but funny all the same!
:lol:
