    June Whitfield

    The only interview she did was a BBC Local Radio special, which could have been recorded weeks ago. The Mail / Mirror articles are just reporting what she said on the radio show.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2019

    Doddie Weir is an absolute certainty to get an obituary from the BBC and all the British newspapers. Would agree he will likely make 2019 though.
