I wonder if this will get in to the charts:

I don't think there is anywhere to officially buy it.

Awfully sad news I don't think anyone was expecting, and 62 is definitely too young to go. Although I'm not sure about this line from the current version of the BBC News report . . .
He presented a wide range of shows, including Family Fortunes and In It To Win It.

I don't seem to recall Dale ever hosting Family Fortunes.

He was very breathless at times in that Florida fly drive doc on Channel 5. You could physically see him struggling to breathe.

Not saying that was linked to his death though.

Everyone is aware of Supermarket Sweep, you don’t have to embed a YouTube video of it.

This is probably my favourite Dale moment, when he is so happy chatting to Barbara Windsor he is totally oblivious to the instructions that Alan Dedicoat is trying to provide!

I hope Channel 5 resume his Florida series now which they pulled after one episode due to the school shootings.

A clean edit of the 2007 Supermarket Sweep revival.



Wasn't another Supermarket Sweep revival in the works recently?

Besides, everyone knows Touch the Truck is his finest hour!

I'd love Challenge or another channel to air that again, I don't think it's anywhere on the Internet.

Challenge won’t air that. But they might show loads of the Sweep.

I can imagine Dale would have been a really good call for Family Fortunes actually.

He always seemed to have really good rapport with the contestants on his shows. Very sad news.
