a suggestion from Dr Gavin Bailey. Many small detail changes and corrections
are made which account for around two thirds of the changes to the
V8 Website, so only the material webpage changes of interest to

Humphrey Lyttleton
Sadly Humphrey Lyttleton died on Friday 25 April 2008 following an operation.
He was a much loved radio presenter and jazz musician and much more. His career
covered trumpeter, clarinettist, bandleader, broadcaster, writer, journalist and
calligrapher, cartoonist (Daily Mail 1949-53) and chairman of the Radio 4 antidote
to panel games, "I'm Sorry I Haven't Clue" from 1972-2008. Our series
of webpages on the V8 Website captures much of the fun that was the man, not least
his Samantha jokes. More
