    His son and my daughter were at Oxford together and we met as proud Dad's on the induction day. He was Charm personified - it's true, the greatest comment anyone can pay is to say he was human with immense empathy and love for humanity.
    Rest in peace sir!

    This makes you want to reach in to your television or radio and give Clive and Naga a big comforting hug as some kind of small consolation for the loss of their friend and coleague. Viewers obviously liked George Alagaiah but we never really got to know him personally like you would in an office or news room like proper work mates do. It seems like such a small comfort to say rest in peace George. But that's all most of us can do.
