A big part of my childhood. Remember him setting the civilian free fall record at some point. I should have got to meet him and the team when I got my gold blue peter badge, but sadly it didn't come about.

JN always looked to be having the best fun ever on Blue Peter, bless him. RIP.

Very sad to hear this. A real part of my childhood. When Shep died we all cried.

Blue Peter. Another great reason for growing up in 70s/80s. Sad news indeed.

And the 50s and 60s.
