I'm delighted that now he is dead many people feel able to share their personal anecdotes: pulled together they show his true character and most will think more highly of him in death than in life.
He really didn't care what people thought of him, it seems, as long as he was living to his own high standards.
His sense of humour was wonderful, he would have made one hell of a chair on "Have I Got News For You"......
