Very sad to hear that Mr Norman Painting OBE passed away yesterday (29th October 2009). Norman had played Phil Archer in the long running BBC radio show "The Archers" Since the pilot episodes went out in 1950. In fact is in the guinness book of records for being the Actor playing the longest continuous role - almost 60 years!
We Archers fans will now have to wait to see how they write "Phil" out of the show. I hope he goes peacefully - It will be hard not to shed a tear.
