Just read that he has died following a stroke.

Another sad loss. There seem to be so many of our era shuffling off sad

I can remember listening to Ed Stewart on Radio London in the 60's and his catchphrase "Ello Darlin". It became part of tradition to listen to his Junior Choice programme on Christmas morning while preparing the dinner. Will miss Ed and all those childhood songs he played (even a few from my own childhood)! I must admit he didn't sound his usual chirpy self this Christmas day, so probably wasn't too well then.

He had become a bit of a Christmas tradition for me over the years and listening to him on Christmas morning always gave me happy memories and a couple of tears.
