[News] Ambrose Harcourt - RIP

[Fourteenth Eye]

Im devastated to learn that a true Brighton Legend - Ambrose Harcourt has sadly passed away

He delighted many on the airwaves under the guise of Mr Lurve & also helped many businesses in the area in his role as a consultant.

He was an utter delight of a guy that lit up every room he walked in.

RIP my friend

Really sad news.

RIP Ambrose.

 

[Eeyore]

Really quite shocked.

The Love Hour will always be remembered in Southern Sound days. Ambrose was the local airwaves.

Really sad. RIP.

RIP. I never really knew what he did apart from just being Ambrose Harcourt. I mean this in a very positive sense.

Really sad news! One of the good local DJs.

R.I.P. Ambrose.

True story - I was selling a property in Worthing and he put an offer in on behalf of his kids. I accepted his offer but - as many of his listeners do in The Love Hour - he pulled out at the last moment..

Used to listen to Ambrose Harcourt, when a yoof.
When Southern Sound to reach the farthest reaches of East Sissex.
Great music.

Had the pleasure of working with Ambrose and alongside him as a Charity Patron, a truly warm, kind and generous man, loved people and helping them, always had a smile and loved his sport, especially Chelsea. RIP dear friend.

Genuinely, my ex Mrs thought his name was Ambrose Hardcore and also thought The Happy Mondays sang "You know you talk so hip man, You're Mr Mandela Man".
So............

RIP Ambrose Hardcore

I too worked with Ambrose he was living in Goring at the time. Harcourt was just his stage name, his real name was ob......, I could never spell it!
He had the ability to use his hands when talking in a mesmerising action, and to get reaction when ever he walked in the room.
RIP Ambrose

This is truly shocking news. I can't believe it. Such a delightful man who I knew from Friends of the Albion and the Albion Business Club. We always spoke and he kindly asked me to phone in to his radio show a few years ago and chat about my favourite song choices and reasons. A genuine RIP to a lovely man who did so much and gave so much pleasure to many in the local community.
