Desmond Carrington

The actor, writer and radio presenter has died in his 90s. People of my generation will remember the younger Carrington, with his partner Spencer Hale, dispensing criticism of current 78s (complete with record-smashing sound effects) on Radio Luxembourg. Later, he was an early adopter of teleworking when he presented his middle-of-the-road Radio 2 programme from his Perthshire home.
