Did anyone hear the 5.57 pm R4 forecast.? Peter Gibbs decided to
deliver it in the style of the Shippimng Forecast, just bare,
factual
and informative. It was so good to hear a weather forecast for
grownups snip

.... what I would call a 'hands-on', back-to-basics type is Peter: has
the right background & knows how to use the knowledge. Always worth
listening to when he is wheeled in on BBC News during 'big' event.

Jim Bacon was out of a similar mould.
