LEGENDARY TV and radio presenter Paul Barnes has died aged 85.
He worked across the BBC radio network for many years, including Radio 1, while his television credits include The Village Show, Folio and Anything Goes – all for ITV.


The latter programme saw Barnes working alongside a young Anthea Turner.
His wife and fellow broadcaster Helen McDermott said he lived a “full and colourful life”.
She added: “He loved life and whatever he did, TV, Radio or writing, he was a perfectionist.”
The pair also wrote an alternate column every fortnight, for the Norwich Evening News.
