Lanterne Rouge Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 RIP John although it does sound from his family`s statement that it was a release in the end. The Alzheimers he had was a particularly awful case and he`d had no quality of life for a few years now. I remember talking to Peter Purves years ago when he was making a corporate video for our company and he said working with John was an absolute delight.
