Yes - what a gent AND a great sports commentator!
Started out with Eamonn Andrews all those years ago - the voice of sport for SO many years with the Beeb - so knowledgable, witty and quick, be it boxing, soccer, athletics, swimming, etc etc!
A real loss to us - RIP Harry - 'know what I mean'?
I can't think of a current sports commentator that comes close to matching Harry.
Sad to hear of his passing, but he had a few good rounds...
My dad knew Harry when he use to come to the restaurant a couple years back and he was a nice man such a shame rest in peace Harry you will be missed.:(
