Gerry Anderson - Radio Six Counties

[haranguerer]

I'll miss him - he was a fantastic broadcaster, didn't give a flying f**k most of the time it seems! RIP Gerry

Sad news to hear. He was a ledgend in broadcasting.  There will never be another like him.

Sad news to wake up to. Loved his stuff. Stopped listening to the radio after he went off sick.

[Ulick]

End of an era for me. Had hoped he'd be back but clear now no one will ever come close to Gerry at his best.

[Feckitt]

Who sings that 'Indians' song that is being played on the Gerry show now?

[Keyser soze]

Sad to hear this about Gerry. Legend.

Truly sad, i will be downloading every podcast of the Anderson show i can get hold of over the next few days particularly for moments when i need cheered up.  He was some man for one man.

No I didn't either, still sad though.

He was a bit marmite and very much an acquired taste which was forcefed to me in my mother's house but became a must listen too over the years. They played a couple of his clips on GMU this morning and I was laughing at the complete irreverence with which he treated some guest callers and the respect he showed for others, always managing to get it right on the nail every time. A complete genius who appeared to get through a 1 1/2  hour show every morning without appearing to have done any planning or preparation or scheduling and never seemed to run out of stuff to talk about.

Saw him at Balmoral Show and he looked very frail then and was walking aided by a stick. Wasn't entirely my cup of tea but I could recognise how good he was when I head him.

Gerry was always easy to listen to in the morning. He also introduced me to a lot of music that I never would have encountered otherwise and I still enjoy today.

I also learned a few weeks ago that Geordie is from the Scarva / Poyntzpass area.
