John McCririck, RIP (n/t) on 10:51 - Jul 5 with 1224 views | The_Romford_Blue | Terrible news. Grew up watching him every Saturday on channel 4 racing and on The Morning Line before he was given the boot. Loved his racing. Was also a regular on Big Brothers Bit on the Side and was an amusing guest. RIP | |

As a child I always pictured him as an evil Dickens character. From his surname to his clothing to his overly applied make-up, he was born to be in a Dickens novel. About five years ago I sat a couple of tables away from in a London restaurant and he ate with his fingers, whilst wearing fingerless gloves. I half expected the whole restaurant to break into song about him and his ways. | |

Met him several times through the course of work. Actually very quiet and very measured off camera, but you wouldn’t want to piss him off. | |

I met him in the departure lounge at Miami airport some years ago and he was very sunburned & equally grumpy. | |
