VSBfromH 74 Posted March 15, 2011 Bob Greaves The former "Granada Reports" presenter has died aged 76. He was the mainstay of the regional news programme, in at the launch and heading up an estimated 12,000 broadcasts, all the more creditable as he had to endure working with the likes of Tony Wilson, Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan. I last saw him on the BBC house-hunting programme "Wanted Down Under" in 2008 looking for a property in Queensland with his (much younger) fourth wife. Also famously featured on "It'll Be Alright on the Night" reporting from Chester Zoo and getting sexually harrassed by an elephant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted March 18, 2011 Businessman James C. Tyree died on March 16. A hit for Wormer, He's a Dead Man... I wonder if he'll qualify for an unnatural death bonus? Even though he was suffering from metastatic stomach cancer, an autopsy has revealed he died due to accidental causes when an air embolism occurred following the removal of a catheter.
