Shocked, loved him for his humour and wit,and also his caring and compassion for the animals.
Have read all of his books where his warmth and compassion as a social worker in early years are peppered with his wit and humour.
RIP paul

Oh, that is sad. I used to enjoy his radio programme . He seemed to be a lovely man even though he liked to pretend he was very grumpy.

This news about Paul has really made me sad. sad I always enjoyed all his tv programmes and loved all the good work he did for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
He was a very special man and will be sadly missed.

What sad news, I loved his humour since seeing him first on Blankety Blank, all those years ago. I missed his radio 2 music programme when he left last year and always tried to catch For the Love of Dogs. Such a kind man. RIP Paul.

I was shocked when I heard this last night he always seemed a genuinely nice chap and only 67 which seems so young to me
He ll be missed at Battersea
