I awoke this morning to the news that Humphrey Lyttelton, the host of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, died in hospital last night after an operation to repair an aortal aneurism. He was 86 years old.

You may remember this post from a month or so ago, where I mentioned how lively he was (even from Row Z, where we were). I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue is one of my favourite radio shows, and he will be missed. His BBC obituary is here.

For those of you who aren't in the UK and who don't know of Humph, you might want to look at I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue's website, which does not as of Saturday morning, have the news of his death. His own personal website does have the news and a great picture.

Samantha is inconsolable, but her gentleman friend is keeping her busy; she's delving into his record collection of jazz recordings and will likely be listening to Humph blowing away at his trumpet and wishing he were still blowing.
