I can't imagine what my life would be like if it hadn't been for you.
I wouldn't have met all these wonderful friends.
Your memory will live forever.

A genius has passed away. What awful news
Someone should definitely start off a condolonces thread somewhere so we can all pass on our tributes to his family.

A great, great shame
Douglas was a literary, literate and "human" human being. That the rest of us could even aspire to this.
Douglas your creation brought pleasure to millions and was beautifully produced on Radio 4.
Our thoughts to your family.
