RIP Nigel Buxton, journalist, who found fame in later years as 'BaaadDad' on The Adam and Joe Show. As ever, the Telegraphy has an interesting obituary

Irreverent history, of a gloriously irreverent historian. Sad I missed him.

That picture of the young Nigel Buxton in the Alps, chilling a bottle of wine in the snow, is so very much of its time and so cool.

Ah, the gift of dyslexia strikes again... 'Telegraphy', I'm not sure if Nigel would have been horrified or amused.
