Over 50 years, in fact.


April 1957, was the first episode. He hosted it right up until his passing, making him the longest-serving presenter of a television show. A remarkable man in many ways.

That wouldn't be a surprise given it was on last week and Moore appears to have been in pretty poor health for a while. I'm sure the show will continue, anyway, Moore's role has been reduced in recent years sothey have a team of regulars ready and no doubt willing to carry on.

I very much hope Moon is used for this occasion.

EDIT: What a missed opportunity. Poor show, BBC.
