May he rest in peace.

RIP Big TimWe Just received the sad news that our colleague Tim Robertson aka BIG Tim from the study mix show has passed away yesterday aged 55. Big Tim had been recovering from a bout of TB before he reluctantly gave up the show in June to recover from his illness. I had been in monthly contact with him and only received a text from him last week saying "Hi *****, long time no speak , been in hospital for the last 3 months. Glad to say no longer infectious and putting on weight, feeling much improved. Plan to come over & see you all next week. Hope all is well with you guys, Big Tim " Suffice to say that 7 days later he was found dead in his bed from a heart attack. Very sad to hear. From all the colleagues of radio one our thoughts are with Big Tims family and friends RIP old friend.
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.

Any details of funeral? He may have been airlifted to UK where his parents lived in Devon but if it's a local ceremony I would like to pay my respects.

Thanks for the info. I will attend as a former colleague and friend,although at that location I'll be wearing my cycling kit. Is there any special reason for using this Wat which is quite some distance out of town?
k440, something to do when you're pissed.

Damn, the wrong DJs keep dying

I attended Tim's funeral this morning, which is why I wasn't at the party last night. Many thanks to his brother Philip for providing the transport, as it would have been a nightmare finding the place otherwise. It was a quiet, low-key affair, which I'm sure is how Tim would have liked it. RIP Tim. You will be remembered.
