Deathrace 1,170 Posted November 27, 2020 Very sadly I think 2021 is probably going to be his year. As others have said, he's a lovely bloke by all accounts and it will be sad day when he leaves us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted October 21, 2021 Worth noting his statement says he intends to return. I mean, we know he's not here forever and others have made similar declarations that have proved unfounded, but his statement isn't reading as 'So Long and Thanks for All the Fish'. But I suspect this will probably be his last Christmas either way. Such a shame, lovely man. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted January 1, 2022 Little surprised that Turnbull got on but Alagiah didn’t. I think the latter would’ve been a better pick… 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,218 Posted April 7, 2022 I never really watched him on the BBC but did watch him give a masterclass in presenting to the rest of the GMTV presenters. I really warmed to him after that, mainly coz i is a soft shite really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted July 13, 2022 Just going through the list... Bill is still tweeting occasionally. The most recent picture I can see is from May. He looks awfully puffy in there: https://mobile.twitter.com/wwfcofficial/status/1527987913866231810 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
