His voice is burned into my brain. I heard it every weekend throughout my childhood. R.I.P David Coleman.

Was he the one who was famous for saying in an excited shout, "He's come second – and it doesn't get better than that!"?

Always came across as a gentleman. I'm sure he will be sadly missed by many.
