Hope that this hasn't been posted already, but I've just read that newsreader Peter Sissons has died aged 77.

It’s usually headline news Maggs but I only learnt about on the 6-30 News

Read it earlier. Sad news, RIP.

I saw it earlier. Only seems like 5 minutes ago that he was reading the news.

It's unfortunate that many of the reports of his death refer to him simply as a 'newsreader', because that's a job that's relatively easy to do. It was his talent as a journalist that made him a great broadcaster:

Oh that is sad, my youngest daughter was besotted with him when she was a toddler - I had to wipe the kisses off the TV screen.

RIP Peter.x

Totally agree Chris.
