I thought he died ages ago. Was he not done foe some manner of trousering trocaire funds? I really should google before i post..
“In the early 1980s Carr, who had been chairman of both the Drugs Advisory Service and of the Health Education Bureau, was involved with The Friends of Gorta, the famine relief charity. “Rumours began to circulate about my having run off with funds. I did nothing about it for about six months and then I went on the radio and asked the gossips to tell me all about it. No one phoned in and that was that.”
He always struck me as a decent guy, though like you, I thought he’d long since passed.
RIP.

Thought the same, about both.

The lights have stopped.
…formed Carr Communications…the birthplace of spin which spawned such luminaries as Terry Prone…

RIP.
At the time, the BBC were running quizzes with hundreds of pounds as prize money, plus caravans, washing machines and tea-makers. On Quicksilver you had 5p questions.
I actually remember that, “And Mary, tonight you’re going home with 75p!”
Would his first name be Heil.
Heil Carr?
Wayne?
Wayne Carr..

When you Gorta go you gorta go…..
Don’t give up the day job Ronán.
RIP
I actually thought he’d died years ago
I remember watching Going Strong every Sunday because Scooby Doo was on after.
Stop all the lights, muffle Terry Prone
Take 50p off the board that you’ll be taking home
Silence the nostalgia, polish the Silver Quick,
